A coincidence ‘unplanned’ by media planners!

TeleGraph Up In Smoke

I don’t think this is what the advertiser had in mind when booking this banner campaign on the website of the British daily The Telegraph!

But, it’s a daily newspaper which reports on wars, and this banner has created the kind of embarrassing coincidence that should be a lesson to all advertisers, creatives and media planners.

Slogans like ‘Don’t watch Your Profits Go Up in Smoke’ should not be used.

Chances are a country may be going up in smoke too ….. and let’s just say it’s a much more important issue than profits!
