Capper ad irks viewers

-

FORMER footy high flyer Warwick Capper is a winner again, with his controvers­ial Ultra Tune commercial with Baywatch icon Pamela Anderson topping the list as the most complained about ad of 2020.

In data released by Ad Standards, the advertisem­ent, which featured a bumbling Capper being rescued from the waves by the buxom Anderson and her crew of stunning lifesavers, received a whopping 309 complaints.

It was by far the most complained about ad of the past six months, with a KFC ad in second place with 187 complaints.

Complainan­ts labelled the Ultra Tune ad sexist, demeaning to and objectifyi­ng of women, and insulting to men for portraying them as “hopeless goofs dominated by their hormones”.
