What to you make of the Dove ad which has caused controversy? Massive faux par or deliberate attempt to get media attention, I find it hard to believe any ad agency would not realise this campaign would cause controversy.

For those not aware it shows a black woman turning white after washing.

The only Muff in Town.

Seems, if it were possible, even more cynical than Adidas using a hairy legged female model and then it all kicking off because people commented on her having hairy legs.

Tedious advertising ploy is tedious.

It doesn't show that though. It shows women transitioning from black to white to asian i.e. all different women and skin types.

It's not great and it's risky for the reason it's created a hoo-ha. But that's the same with anything if it's taken out of context.

Yeah, bit like people worrying about the type of football Town play purely for the purposes of encouraging more customers to buy the product.

The root cause is that there are far too many rubbish unnecessary products. Advertising is just the sound of all this stuff jostling for position in the marketplace.

Do we really need 300 different types of chocolate biscuit?

You need to keep the 5% window to have allowed stuff like this to have happened.
