Kurt is Dead

A Campanha das botas Dr. Martens está a dar tanto que falar (aliás pertence a um dos post anteriores do Marlon Brand). Para quem não sabe, esta campanha utiliza icones mortos do rock que estão no céu a usarem botas Dr. Martens - A execução da ideia está muito boa, contudo, insurgiram-se vozes e protestos por todo o lado tantos que o responsável da Marca resolveu deixar a Agência e anúnciá-lo ao mundo através deste press release, passo a citar:

"NEWS RELEASE

FOR IMMEDIATE DISTRIBUTION

DR. MARTENS REGRETS THE USE OF UNAUTHORISED IMAGES

Dr Martens is very sorry for any offense that has been caused by the publication of images showing dead rock icons wearing Dr Martens boots.

Dr Martens did not commission the work as it runs counter to our current marketing activities based on FREEDM, which is dedicated to nurturing grass roots creativity and supporting emerging talent.

As a consequence, Dr Martens has terminated its relationship with the responsible agency.

David Suddens
Chief Executive"
