I really don't see the controversy behind this ad since they decided not to run it. Everyone hates it (even the WWF and environmentalists), the WWF didn't commission it or even ask DDF Brazil to do it, and the people at DDF Brazil who made it apparently lost their jobs. While it is disturbing etc all parties involved are trying to distance themselves from it. If they were supporting it I could see calling it a controversy.

If any of you knew how advertising works you'd know that companies shoot down offensive ad proposals all the time. I wouldn't be surprised if some Grady graduate is pitching Dead Baby flavor to Doritos right now.

Shut up you tree hugging kool-aid drinking Piedmont park hanging out hippie.
