Adland received an email from a creative at a European ad agency with a commercial for Olympus attached promoting the red eye elimination qualities of its cameras. The ad had been presented to the client in Europe who loved it but when big shots in the companies Japan headquarters saw it they were not pleased and told European counterparts to kill the ad. Too bad, guys. It's out there for all to see now.
