If Bill O'Reilly was upset about a harmless gay-themed French commercial for McDonalds just wait until he sees this insane spot for Orangina where a humanoid mountain lion shaves and then embraces his gay lover. Um, what?

Personal injury lawyer Andrew Smiley runs an ad every Tuesday on NY1 that is meant as a business-bolstering public service announcement. He calls it "Did You Know Tuesday." Unfortunately his spot got hijacked with a stealthily naughty message.

Steve Jobs has already been busted for exaggerating the resolution of a new iPhone screen the Apple CEO unveiled yesterday. It's only the latest in a series of misleading videos, pictures and claims designed to part you and your money.

An incredibly fake-looking advertising campaign for Huggies' denim diapers can't include the world "poop", ABC has decided. Yes, that's right, the commercial's tag line—"the coolest you'll look pooping your pants"—is for real.

The British Advertising Authority has banned two handbag ads by Louis Vuitton because they intimated the factory-made goods were sewn by hand. Just because something says "handmade" doesn't mean it's handmade, people. (Well, unless tiny little Chinese fingers are involved.)

The death of euphemism in advertising continues apace. "Tampon is not a dirty word, and neither is vagina," claims a tampon advertising guru. Oh? Television networks disagree.

Hero Iraqi shoe-hurler Muntader al-Zaidi probably had to get his balls electrocuted in prison so hard, and for what? To have his heroic act co-opted for a Colombian fabric softener commercial. A revolutionary's cruel, inevitable fate! [Copyranter at AnimalNY]

In the olden days, the preferred way to sell chocolate milk powder was with pictures of futuristic scientists shining heat lamps onto the bottoms of naked young boys. Afterwards, families retreated to 7-Eleven parking lots to bask in nature's glow.

It only took a day for the death of three Tesla Motors employees to be converted into ill-advised advertising. Witness the email ad below, circulated to Silicon Valley venture capitalists near the scene of the plane crash.

Oh hell, Reebok is now using even more gratuitously porny buttock photos to enhance the bullshit buttocks-toning promise of its allegedly buttocks-toning magic shoes, which are—god—so fake. Try attaching handles to the model and doing deadlifts, instead. [Copyranter]

So, the supposedly crazy-controversial commercial for Christian pro-life organization Focus on the Family—featuring crybaby bible-thumping quarterback Tim Tebow—has arrived. And how is it?

Usually car companies talk about how awesome their cars are. Since recalling millions of its vehicles, Toyota has had to persuade people their vehicles won't kill them. Today, they bought newspaper ads throughout the country to try to do this.

Remember Apple's classic '1984' ad campaign? Funny how they ended up employing Big Brother's turn-and-burn on the truth, the difference being: George Orwell labeled it "doublespeak," and Apple passes it off as advertising.

UPDATE: Joe Revitte from Dollar Van Demos sent this note telling his side of the story.

An awkward white man wins over a crowd of unruly black people with a bucket of fried chicken. That's racist. But wait: KFC says context matters, and "How to Silence a Noisy Crowd" aired during an Australia-West Indies cricket match.

Fine, here: Jamie Jungers, the most desperate of the Tiger Woods love interests, is being repped by incompetent superflack (and Douche candidate) Ronn [sic] Torossian's 5WPR. We're told this was filmed right in the 5W office. Seems right. CLARIFICATION:

That's two. Accenture announced today: they're ending all promotions with Tiger Woods as their pitchman (using the line "High Performance: Delivered). The Sponsorship Dance Card's been updated. Related inquiry: Will mistress outings be inversely proportional to sponsorship pull-outs? [WSJ]

Not that it was hard to see this coming, but The Business That Is Tiger Woods is starting to lose a grip on its multinational corporate backers. In fact, one two of them have gone down! Can you guess who?

An ad for a body waxing business shows a hairless beaver. There's also a hairless kitty and a hairless cock. When did we stop trying? [Copyranter, who would also like to show you Mona Lisa's tits.]
