Maybe that was true in 1998, but it's certainly not true now.

Strange statement given that there's absolutely no evidence of that.

  • Ask anyone who ever worked there, at least a few years ago it was true.

    • "Of course we are the good guys, it's everyone else who is misguided when they get upset after finding out out about our awesome work."

      Choosing to work for an advertising giant already calls into question either your ability to tell what "the right thing" is our your honesty in claiming to do it.
