In honor of holiday cheer, staffers at BBH NY created a website that puts all of the most hateful comments trolls left on Ads of the World, Agency Spy, and other advertising blogs on festive Christmas card backgrounds.
Although BBH NY was quick to clarify on Twitter, to virtually everyone who commented about the site, that "Warm Wishes From Adland" wasn't an official company project.
While the posts are pretty ridiculous, some people on Madison Avenue might be holding their laughs. DDB Chicago executive creative director Paul Tilley committed suicide in 2008, shortly after he was ripped apart in the comments section of an Agency Spy post.?While the tragedy isn't tied to the comments, it did provoke national news outlets to condemn blog trolling culture.
So what were the worst things people said about ad agencies this year?
