Hair-raising shampoo ads

Why is it that every day we are constantly bombarded with shampoo ads for White women but not a single one for Black women? Who is doing all this media planning? 2 Nov 2004

Too much

There is too much focus on a specific township (Soweto) by some of the big brands (e.g Castle) in their ads and this I think alienates other people who do not see themselves targeted by such ads. 2 Nov 2004

Great South African concept

The Great South African series concept was inherently flawed at the outset. But the worst of it is the radio ad (which ran on Sat 16th after the series was cancelled in the media last week). 20 Oct 2004

Aaaarghhh! Enough with these Outsurance ads!

Energade apple ad - bad timing?

Have you heard the radio ad for the apple flavoured Energade that proudly sponsors our SA team? What you put in is what you get out, or so it goes. Pity the Cricket team is doing so badly. 29 Sep 2004

So what happens to the Loeries next year?

The company that runs the Loeries is purportedly bankrupt despite the endless entry fees submitted by our agencies. Does this spell the end for Loeries? 22 Sep 2004

Last week there was an incident of more counterfeit goods being buried to rot in the earth - this time it was lollipops wrapped in fake 'Dragonball Z' packaging. 10 Aug 2004
