The Advertising Standards Bureau has released its list of the most-complained about ads of 2008, covering TV, print and billboards. To be frank, I haven’t seen most of them (which reflects my media consumption habits, I guess), but it’s interesting to note that even the most-complained about ad — the Kotex ‘beaver’ campaign — only attracted 185 complaints, and wasn’t ultimately banned. Motorola’s Razr ad held up the tech flag at #10.

What a joke, if people find the adds on that list offensive then they shouldn’t be watching TV…

What was wrong with that? Actually I think it is a fairly good ad, not sexist either way!
