Hard to believe that an ad of this “nature” can get by the big wig advertising executives, the CEO’s, and all involved in a company’s advertising efforts. Just hard to believe that “this” could “slip through the cracks” and actually be approved and published.
Bloomingdale’s just released their holiday catalog, which features “funny” captions alongside people modeling clothes that none of us will ever be able to afford.
And one page shows a guy staring at a woman while she laughs and talks with someone else, along with the caption, quote, “Spike your best friend’s eggnog when they’re not looking.”
Someone posted a picture of the ad on the Internet on Tuesday . . . and people immediately jumped on Bloomingdale’s for, you know, kind of recommending you roofie your female friends.
Bloomingdale’s apologized almost immediately, quote, “In reflection of recent feedback, the copy we used in our recent catalog was inappropriate and in poor taste. Bloomingdale’s sincerely apologized for this error in judgment.”
