The Washington Post used its first Super Bowl ad to highlight the importance of journalism.
With actor Tom Hanks narrating, the 60-second ad aired in the fourth quarter, just before the two-minute mark.
Hanks narrated the spot, as photos of notable events, including the Selma March and landing on the moon, were show on the screen.
“When we go off to war, when we exercise our rights, when we soar to our greatest heights, when we mourn and pray, when our neighbors are at risk, when our nation is threatened, there’s someone to gather the facts, to bring you the story no matter the cost,” Hanks said.
