I built this website. From scratch. Including the servers.
Complaint:
Objection to an advertisement, in Campaign magazine, for tickets to an advertising awards ceremony. The advertisement showed a photo of an unbuttoned dress shirt with stains on the front and captions describing them. A lipstick stain at the bottom of the shirt was captioned "ZOE. CREATIVE SECRETARY". The complainant objected that the suggestion of oral sex was offensive and demeaned women, especially those who worked in advertising.
"The advertisers said they had not intended to cause offence to women in general or to those in advertising; they said the advertisement was intended to encourage people to attend their awards night." (so they could get their blowjobs?") "The publishers said their audience was sophisticated, professional and limited to those working in the media and advertising." (not any girls then, right?)
apparantly.

"Little Leaguers deserve to see their heroes slide into bases, not ads," wrote Nethercutt, who is running for U.S. Senate.
"It's gotten beyond grotesque," Nader said. "The fans have to revolt here. Otherwise, they'll be looking at advertisements between advertisements."
Yeah we wrote about it in february, can't wait to see how it turns out.
And copywhore, I guess thats why they entered it only into the art direction category, hahaha. Unfortunatly for iPods iCandy the other stuff was miles better.
Wait.. So they got the photo version from either Coco Del Mer or the artist shown above - and the Video version from Beautiful agony that Imanaddy linked? .......or?
