Sony avoids getting pimp slapped by ASA
The Advertising Standards Authority has now decided to not take action against Sony for numerous posters they had been putting up to promote the multimedia functions of the PSP.
Some of the posters which illicited angry critisism from people who obviously need more to do had tag lines like, "Your girlfriend's white bits here", and "Saucy e-mails won't get you fired here".
According to Sony the posters were supposed to be funny and not intended to anger anyone.
One poster was removed immediately by Sony, the "Take a running jump" poster, which was hung up in subway and train stations.
Aww, see, that's the kind of advertising we need, it will weed out the bottom of the barrel and the mentally unstable. If someone reads one of these posters and hurts themselves rock on! They won't make babies and subsequently propogate their genetics. I say hang your signs up high Sony, and maybe add one or two like, "God hates you, take revenge" or "Hey, it was ok to do in GTA".
