WWE News: Chris Benoit Mistakenly Used in Ad Campaign, Stock Even
– WWE stock closed at $19.91, even with yesterday’s closing price.
– British snack food company Walkers made quite the mistake during their latest ad campaign. The company launched a “Walkers Wave” campaign asking users to send in selfies, with the winner getting tickets to the UEFA Champions League final in Cardiff, Wales. As you might predict, trolls sent in a variety of inappropriate “selfies” and many of them made it through the screening process, from serial killers and child molesters to none other than Chris Benoit. You can see the video with Benoit below.
Walkers has removed the campaign and posted to Twitter:
We recognise people were offended by irresponsible & offensive posts & we apologise. We are equally upset & have shut the activity down.
