Do I have to Stop Using Old Spice?

December 24, 2008

“Just a quick tip: Old Spice (Wieden & Kennedy) royally screwed up its Man of the Year contest, allowed a racist homophobe to win, and now the blogosphere is buzzing about a possible boycott. Thought your readers might like to know.”

Hasn’t agency gossip done enough harm?

March 17, 2008

“Hasn’t agency gossip done enough harm?” That was the subject of an empty email someone just sent me.

Here are my answers:

1. You tell me.
2. No, people need to be able to vent and what better place to do so then Adomatica?!?
3. Adomatica is not all about gossip, I happily post ~real~ news too.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
