A romantic interlude between a man and woman is interrupted by a third party�the man’s liver which appears in the form of another guy in a liver costume. The original guy advises his date to ignore the liver seated next to them on a couch. Then the lights go out and the liver pummels its owner. The moral: Don’t ignore your liver.

“‘Context Changes Everything’ has become an important rallying point with consumers to remind them what’s unique about Bloomberg as we continue to double down on global news coverage for them,” said Julia Beizer, COO, Bloomberg Media. “‘The Contextualist’ moves the brand forward by personifying the prevailing ideas of intellect, curiosity and ambition.
