Some took serious offense to the ad, including Martin Luther King's daughter! Does Pepsi deserve it?
Pepsi issued a public apology:
Is Pepsi really innocent or was this an orchestrated strategy for publicity?
If this age of social media has taught us anything then it is the fact that publicity sells, positive or negative. Look at the Kardashian Empire, it clearly tells that being talked even if it's all demeaning can actually help to hype the brand.
Could this ad campaign from Pepsi release conveniently on the 49th anniversary of the a s sa s sination of Martin Luther King Jr. be just a coincidence and a harmless effort to unite people or a deliberate marketing strategy?
