Black spots? ahhh it must be that adbusting time of year again. Once more the US based group is calling on folk of all inclinations to get their markers ready and go for it. Those with more time on their hands, as some folk in Oxford have shown, can take it further- launching a fully fledged subvertising campaign. Adbusters targets corporations whose logos are all pervasive and whose ethics are dubious. The adbusters website has its own "dirty dozen" listed here in reverse order: Altria, Clear Channel,
Starbucks, AOL Time Warner, GAP, Microsoft, Coca Cola, Disney, WallMart, Nike, Exxon Mobil and of course, with 5,300 votes for dirtiest dirty thing there is....McDonalds. See the Oxford IMC website for pictures and the adbusters site at unbrandamerica.org for more information
