Think about it this way:

Publicity is publicity. icon_wink.gif

Good publicity is publicity.

Bad publicity is publicity. icon_smile.gif

okay any black people here? do u find it offensive? personally i can see how some might but cmon. wen u look at th whole campaign (thats right its a campaign of which people will see ALL of the ads, not just th one that fruits posted) its not racist at all. yes it shows black and white. the white apparently dominating in some but theres black dominating in others. ask yourselves this...if it were the other way around ie. black psp comin out instead of white, and they had th black woman dominating th white in that one ad, would this discussion even be taking place? NO. and the one with th black woman on top....it doesnt say 'black people are violent'. but thats part of th point here. it seems that no matter wot there will always be bleeding hearts saying oh its racist. "th white woman is winning...it says whites are better." "the black woman is winning....it says blacks are violent" its just an ad. unless people can get over these issues then racism will NEVER b gone. people perpetuate racism by reading into things like this and getting all uptight 'on behalf' of the parties who are supposedly going to b offended.

Oooh no, they're not allowed to show people of different races and draw attention to the fact that human beings have different coloured skin... that's sooooo racist.

/sarcasm off.

How is that ad racist???


FUCKING QFT.

It just shows the insecurity of this world when people think that ad is in anyway racist, oh wow a picture of a white and a black woman, i'm so offended...

Sometimes I wonder what kind of world i'm living in. Sure our ancestors fucked up with the slave trade etc. but that doesn't mean we have to walk around on egg shells whenever approaching the topic of white and black. Fucking rediculous imo.

I can see why people would deem it offensive. But i posted it because of the white chicks hair tbh. lol so 80's i'm laughing out loud.

Why did they have to make the black chick so unnactrive and manly. They have the white check all in skimpy cloths and the black chick i thought was a man at first.

what's wrong with the world? is anyone happy being human, being alive? anyone at all? why does humanity have to overcomplicate it's existence with this ignorant form of paranoia? i guess it's too hard to coexist with anyone with anything different that them peacefully.

Whining about Racist adverts because they show black people is like whining about getting killed by 203 in AA.

If you have a Black PSP, do you have to give up your seat on the bus to the owners of this new PSP?

well, lets just tell the corporations to never talk about different races again. That way, we wont have people jumping about, trying to point out how bad the company is.
