Brilliant move by ManCrunch getting lots of free publicity from getting their ad rejected.

ManCrunch? Although I have never heard of the company, I would be surprised if they had $3 million for a 30 second ad.

I doubt it too.

But they got lots of publicity for free.

And that is what they are after. Was it Madonna that said an publicity is good?

I wouldn't put much stock in what Madonna has to say. There is bad publicity - just ask Tiger Woods.

But the ManCrunch episode was not bad publicity. It was free publicity.

I saw the ad and thought amateurish. Why would the network allow such an ad? It made no sense to me.

Here's the ad:

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/0VMqHb03p74&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/0VMqHb03p74&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
