Essay 441


The Sony Playstation Portables graffiti campaign was harshly criticized by community activist groups, politicians and hard-core tagging enthusiasts. From San Francisco to Chicago to Philadelphia to New York, the work was cited for violating city ordinances and assorted legal and moral codes.

So maybe that’s why Adweek named OMD as Global Media Agency of the Year.

And hey, the OMD executives sure appear to be in touch with the youth market. Gotta believe any one of the OMD Boomers depicted would have vehemently complained to their elected officials if the Sony ads appeared in their neighborhoods.
