 In 2010, more than 1,300 complained about a TV commercial for the Paddy Power betting giant. The footage of a blind football player kicking a cat across a pitch was said to be offensive to blind people and at risk of encouraging animal cruelty. |

A blind footballer kicking a cat and call centre workers singing with their mouths full are among the stars of the most controversial adverts of the past 50 years. Abortion clinics, the Pope in a hard hat and a naked Sophie Dahl also feature in the first chart of the most complained about promotions of all time. The details are revealed today by industry watchdog the Advertising Standards Authority, which has been criticised for its liberal approach and failure to support complaints from the public. Five of the ten advertisements that appear in the league table were cleared by the ASA despite the avalanche of complaints they generated. The most controversial commercial of the past 50 years is an advert for abortion charity Marie Stopes, which was shown on television in 2010. Critics said that allowing an abortion provider to advertise in this way normalised the procedure, even giving it credibility as a form of contraception. It provoked 1,088 individual complaints, with the figure rising to 4,688 once petitions were taken into account. Next in the chart is the advertisement which drew the most individual complaints, not including petitions. A total of 1,671 were unhappy about the 2005 promotion for fast food chain KFC, which featured footage of call centre workers singing with their mouths full. Many objected on the basis it could encourage bad manners among children. Also in the top ten is a 1995 leaflet issued by the British Safety Council, featuring a picture of the Pope wearing a hard hat with the words: ‘The Eleventh Commandment: Thou shalt always wear a condom.’ It was intended to raise awareness of National Condom Week and promote safer sex, but the ASA accepted it was offensive to Roman Catholics. Since then, however, regulators have cleared the way for condoms to be advertised more prominently, and they can now be promoted on television before the 9pm watershed. In 2010, more than 1,300 complained about a TV commercial for the Paddy Power betting giant.

盲人足球運(yùn)動(dòng)員踢貓與呼叫中心人員嘴里塞滿東西唱歌被列為過(guò)去50年來(lái)最受爭(zhēng)議的廣告。 此外，墮胎診所、戴著安全帽的教皇與裸體的蘇菲?達(dá)爾也是觀眾投訴最多的廣告。 英國(guó)產(chǎn)業(yè)監(jiān)管機(jī)構(gòu)廣告標(biāo)準(zhǔn)局今日發(fā)布了廣告細(xì)節(jié)，這些廣告因?yàn)槌叨忍螅覜](méi)有對(duì)公眾投訴做出回應(yīng)而受到批評(píng)。 盡管排行榜中的十大廣告受到大量投訴，但還是有五個(gè)廣告獲得了廣告標(biāo)準(zhǔn)局的批準(zhǔn)。 過(guò)去50年里爭(zhēng)議最大的商業(yè)廣告就是2010年電視上播出的一則瑪麗?史托帕斯墮胎慈善機(jī)構(gòu)的廣告。 評(píng)論人士說(shuō)，讓墮胎醫(yī)療機(jī)構(gòu)用這種方式做廣告會(huì)讓墮胎手術(shù)變得更常態(tài)化，甚至?xí)尮娤嘈胚@是一種避孕形式。 這則廣告引來(lái)1088個(gè)投訴電話，如果把請(qǐng)?jiān)笗?shū)也計(jì)算在內(nèi)，投訴就達(dá)到了4688個(gè)之多。 排行第二的廣告是不包括請(qǐng)?jiān)笗?shū)在內(nèi)、個(gè)人投訴最多的廣告。 總共有1671人對(duì)2005年肯德基快餐連鎖店的這一廣告感到不滿。在視頻中，呼叫中心人員嘴里塞滿東西唱歌。許多人反對(duì)這一廣告，理由是它會(huì)慫恿孩子的不禮貌行為。 躋身前十的還有1995年英國(guó)安全委員會(huì)發(fā)的傳單。傳單上教皇頭戴安全帽，旁白是：“第十一條戒律：汝須戴安全套。” 這一廣告的本意是在全國(guó)避孕套周喚起人們對(duì)安全性行為的意識(shí)，宣揚(yáng)更安全的性生活，但廣告標(biāo)準(zhǔn)局承認(rèn)該廣告冒犯了羅馬天主教。 不過(guò)，從那以后，監(jiān)管人員就為避孕套廣告掃清了道路，如今避孕套廣告可以在9點(diǎn)前的黃金時(shí)段在電視上播出。 2010年，1300多人投訴了一則為賭博公司“帕迪鮑爾”做的電視廣告。 在這段廣告視頻中，一位盲人足球運(yùn)動(dòng)員將一只貓從球場(chǎng)的一頭踢到另一頭。投訴原因是既不尊重盲人，又鼓勵(lì)人們虐待動(dòng)物。 相關(guān)閱讀 （中國(guó)日?qǐng)?bào)網(wǎng)英語(yǔ)點(diǎn)津 陳丹妮 編輯：Julie） |
