How is America viewed in the world today?

That's a questionÊKeith Reinhard has been asking, and the answer he's getting worries him. As president of Business for Diplomatic Action, Keith is attempting to mobilize U.S. multinationals to help reduce anti-American sentiment overseas. We'll talk to him about the challenges in changing world opinion about America and American consumer brands.

Keith is also chairman of DDB Worldwide. With offices in 96 countries, DDB Worldwide this year was named Global Agency Network of the Year by Advertising Age magazine and Global Agency of the Year by Adweek magazine.
