How it now proceeds to deal with it internally will be an important signal to its agencies of exactly what sort of parent WPP is striving to be. A través de lanzamientos consistentes y de alta calificación, el hombre se hizo rápidamente un nombre para sí mismo y continúa haciéndolo en cada ocasión. WPP has already dealt with the farrago with a degree of elan externally. The great sounds of local group Farrago can be heard in the gardens on Sunday, July 31 from 2pm to 4pm. El habitual de Lenske, Farrago, emerge como parte de una nueva generación de techno. But can WPP afford to send a signal to its offices around the world that there is a central, lowest-common-denominator arbiter of what's creatively appropriate? Not if it wants to reassure its people that they work for a company that respects local cultures, embraces creative flair and confers a degree of independence on its businesses, in spite of Sorrell's famously hands-on approach. And the ad's creators surely displayed a ridiculous naivety if they neglected to warn their parent company of the possible fallout from their work. Producing an ad that causes such acute embarrassment to WPP on its home turf is perhaps unforgivable. Dig around and every advertising network will surely find it has produced ads in one country that would be deemed offensive in another.

The film will have many supporters in Argentina, for whom it expresses a strongly held belief in the country's sovereignty over the Falkland Islands. But WPP must proceed with extreme caution now. We can only, for the moment, imagine what conversations are taking place between WPP HQ and its Argentine subsidiary. And that another WPP agency, JWT London, recently won the account for Army recruitment. Consider, too, that Y&R's London office is producing the BBC's own Olympics trailers - in effect, being paid to do so by British taxpayers. If the reports are true, they propel the agency from mere servant of the government's marketing demands to aggressor.įor a subsidiary of a British company to produce an ad politicising the Olympics in the year we are the host nation is deeply embarrassing for WPP, for the British government, for the Olympics committee.

But it has been a fascinating, embarrassing and damning drama, exacerbated by reports that the idea for the film was driven by the Y&R team in Buenos Aires, which then touted it around potential clients before managing to sell it to the Argentinian government.

Such a swift and decisive response drew a lot of sting out of the story. He wasted no time condemning the ad and agreeing to donate any money made by the agency from the film to armed forces charities.
