Yet Another Problem with a Ryanair Ad
Jan 30th, 2008 | By Jared BlankJust a day after annoying the president of France with an ad poking a bit of fun at him, Ryanair has had another advertising problem: the British Advertising Standards Agency (ASA) said that an ad showing a schoolgirl with the tagline promising the “hottest back to school fares” was “irresponsible and offensive.”
In response, a Ryanair spokesperson said, “We will not be withdrawing this ad and we will not provide the ASA — Absurd Silly Asses — with any of the undertakings they seek.” There ya go.
