because i DO try to be fair, i'll post this email

i got it yeterday (but just read it now). (corbin & associates is a marketing firm by the way)

see the posting from yesterday to understand this posting today

Dear A Rose is a Rose:

Thank you for taking the time to post your story on Bacardi Breezer.

The campaign you are referring to ran in 2008 for two months in Israel. Even though Bacardi Breezer is not sold or distributed in the United States, we immediately notified the appropriate Bacardi affiliate and had this website shut down.

Bacardi proudly celebrates diversity and we do not endorse the views of this site. We sincerely apologize to anyone who was offended by this site and thank you for bringing it to our attention.

Sean-Patrick M. Hillman

Executive Vice President

CORBIN & ASSOCIATES, LTD.

and here is my answer;

mr hillman, i know the campaign only ran in israel. are israeli women different than american women?

is your firm affiliated with mccann digital in ANY way? did your firm approve that ad campaign?

oh and two months is two months too long. to me that is hardly immediate. i truly appreciate your apology although i believe it's of course for pr purposes and NOT because bacardi (and yes, SOMEONE actually from bacardi had to have approved that ad campaign) offended every single women on this earth in this cosmos

no, i won't be drinking bacardi and i'm going to ask every single person i know to NOT drink it either.

sincerely,

a rose is a rose (who is a woman and was highly offended by that ad campaign)
