Apparently the below graphic has attracted the attention of the Advertising Standards Authority as allegedly 'offensive and homophobic'. Judge for yourselves.
It is one thing to take all serious complains seriously. It is quite another to be unable to distinguish what are serious complaints and what are not. However, we all know what happens when the ASA has complaints from Catholics about offensive adverts. Generally speaking they go in the bin.
The ASA is a paper tiger. When this kind of double-standard gets enforced seriously, then we are going to be in trouble.
One for the sidebar I think!
