It's legit.
Souces: trust me bro.
Get used to it. Menno’s there now.
He might have high standards but I don’t know one ad agency person who doesn’t like him. Great reputation. So he’s tough…and?
I feel sorry for Ogilvy. Giant network... yet they only have the resources and capabilities to try to win awards for campaigns of 3 scam print ads like this ... or Kiwi shoe polish ... or WWF. All non-paying clients who would never actually run a print ad.
Where's the real innovation? The campaigns that truly impact culture?
The network has been stripped so lean to pay shareholders their dividends that they are forced to grasp at straws like this.
SC Johnson owns Kiwi — it’s not a little shoe polish brand
This just looks so weird for a serious topic

Back pages of Craig’s List in Kuala Lumpur???
I don’t know if the ACD is referencing this but pretty much all Singapore’s scam work would run for a night in Kuala Lumpur cos the media buy was so much cheaper. It’d literally be a 0:40 slot on the KL TV station for one night that would then magically get gold at the Internationals
Nothing against these kind of prints in general but it’s a bit different when they involve a war.
Ogilvy thinks their LinkedIn posts count as the ads running.
Basically a free ad buy 🤷🏻♂️
Dogs are dying in Ukraine and all you can think about are exposing fake ads 😢
Agree with you…. Wish they could have thought “what’s important.”

To be fair, this does look like the kind of lame stuff I see in lots of health/pharma print.
I'm a little freaked out by it. Looks more like an ad for tapeworm infestation. Might just be me but I don't see the hand as "helping."
Makes me think of Love Sausage from The Boys. NSFW.
I we wonder why the ad agencies are becoming irrelevant? This is just sad.
Who cares?
I do. That’s why I posted this.
This the type of shit that wins awards in ad school.

On LinkedIn….

How are you so sure these didn’t run? Health agencies can easily partner up with pro-bono clients and do this kind of work. Take Area 23 as the perfect example.
At best, they “ran” and Ogilvy arranged — or even paid — for them to run once in a small paper and on some digital OOH.
