When press releases attack

funny-ad-vs-content

(see the full-size version of this image)

In my morning stroll of Google News about teenagers I picked up on this story. On Google News it was just plain text. But when I clicked the link to bookmark it… well, you can imagine my surprise! Clearly, it was a press release sent around in hopes that it’d get published in newspapers or other online sources. Um, I’m thinking they didn’t intend for their keywords to be paired with these ads.

Talk about unintended consequences. Oops.

Here’s a safer link to the same press release.
