Dear Leo Burnett Sydney …

… so you cried and whined to Youtube so they’d take the video of you acting like a bunch of muppets taken down.

You think that makes you clever don’t you?

Well sadly it doesn’t … because while you may think you’ve now protected your oh-so-pretentious brand image, the fact is the ad community now know what you’ve done/do and find your strategy of appealing to clients by acting like the lowest-common-denominator court jester very sad and very silly.

On top of that, having the video clip proudly announce that it is no longer available due to ‘a copyright claim by Leo Burnett‘ is just plain mental because you’re basically saying acting like twats is a unique attribute of your agency … no doubt developed through a proprietary tool called “twategy’ or something equally as inane.

But hey, that’s your right and I respect that … so instead of saying how I’d of respected you more if you’d just said it was a moment of insanity, I’ll simply hand this post over to Andy who made a rather insightful comment about your actions on my original post:

“theyve taken it down because leo burnett cried to youtube. you bunch of sad snivelling wankers. you did the crime so do the fucking time.

the good news is im closer to the youtube owners than lb ever will be so maybe a word in their shell like will get them to unrelease the clip and feature it on the fucking landing page.

next time leos talk about viral i hope it chokes them. the ad wankers who dont want to spread their message”

Couldn’t of said it better myself.
