O.J. Simpson is the former spokesperson for Hertz Rental Cars. For more than a decade, Simpson appeared in commercials running through airports, serving as an embodiment of speed. The tagline of the commercials was “The Superstar in a rent-a-car.” Hertz tapped Simpson to be their spokesman in 1975, when they wanted to emphasize the speed of their service to their audience of primarily white businessmen. The commercials increased Hertz’s sales and Simpson remained the spokesperson until his 1994 trial.
The correct answer is Hertz.
