Badvertising: Intel Apologizes For “Insensitive” and “Insulting” Ad - Consumerist

I can’t believe someone didn’t spot this earlier. Intel is too big of a corporation to be tempting fate with “edgy” advertising, particularly if it crosses a very obvious line in to bad taste. This isn’t subtle or even clever, it’s just blatant dumbness. The thing that strikes me as weird, is that Intel is a large enough company to have a huge design department. Didn’t this ad have to go through many layers of bureaucracy before it was released in to the wild?
