Since the publication of @Ad_Standards list, Collective Shout has released another statement claiming the dismissal of both the KFC and Ultra Tune ads is a ‘failure of self-regulation’.

“Ad Standards gives the illusion of regulation” Liszewski said.

“The dismissal of the ads that received hundreds of complaints indicates Ad Standards is not actually reflecting ‘community standards’.

“As their own ‘most complained about’ list shows, demeaning, sexist ads aren’t regulated. They’re actually endorsed,” Liszewski said Image
KFC led the way with 187 complaints.

Ad Standards received complaints about the ad sexualising the boys & reinforcing gender stereotypes. The complaints were dismissed but the decision drew ire from Collective Shout and the wider industry.
