The Australian: Uproar over Nokia ad video

Mobile phone company Nokia is red-faced over an unauthorised advertisement containing images of animal cruelty circulating via email.

Nokia Australia's head of marketing, Antony Wilson, said the video clip was not an official advertisement but might be an unauthorised version produced by one of Nokia's 52 advertising agencies worldwide.

The ad seems fine to me - it certainly gets the point across

As previously mentioned "deniable opps" advertising is not unusual. This video, which I assume is faked, comes fast on the back of the Puma fiasco. Both in my opinion were done with suitable authority, either on the client or agency side.
