Topic:
“I hate advertising. But I love great ads. The kind of work that rewards you, invites you in, even changes the way you think.

To prove that communication can go further than a 15 second spot with a celebrity doing something silly. Have we been successful? We’ll let you decide. Though the police certainly seemed to have weighed in with their opinion.” ~ John Merrifield.
