February is Black History Month, and the Atlantic’s Jemele Hill is celebrating in the best way she knows how: by plugging Crown Royal.
Yes, really:
#Ad Considering I have all my important documents stashed in my Crown Royal bags, how could I not partner with @CrownRoyal to celebrate #BlackRoyalty for #BHM? Follow @CrownRoyal as we celebrate those who show up in the ways that matter.

It certainly is a fun twist on Black History Month! The Atlantic should do a story about it.
How could you not? I would *assume* because The Atlantic might object to staff writers doing sponsored tweets for multinational booze companies? https://t.co/EJjLDKHe8k

Can’t wait to see what else the Atlantic endorses @JeffreyGoldberg. https://t.co/XFo5IuhQUu

she shall be identified in articles as the "Crown Royal spokeswoman."
Eg.: "Crown Royal spokeswoman Jemele Hill still speaking her mind, this time on podcast." pic.twitter.com/gCJVsu0IYu

Who knew being a staff writer at The Atlantic could lead to all sorts of endorsement opportunities. Can’t wait to watch David Frum become the new Dr. Scholl’s spokesman. https://t.co/P71tGMYPUa
