MUMBAI, India (AP) — The Indian unit of Ford Motor Co. has apologized for advertisements decried as demeaning to women, including one depicting Italy’s former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi with a trio of bound women in the trunk of a car.

A Ford India spokeswoman said Monday that the company is investigating whether anyone at the automaker ever saw the print ads, which were never used commercially but appeared over the weekend on a website showcasing creative advertising.

I wonder what Berlusconi thinks of it. [:D]

K, I can see him nodding his head, saying "hot!" He has never seemed too upset with the legend of his libido.

It's unfair to blame Ford for this stupidity though. They never saw or authorized these ads. Somebody in the ad agency dreamt them up and then spread them on the web.

True, but being attached to their brand, I guess they thought they should apologize anyway. In today's world, we worship the blame game, and it's become the go to reaction to say "sorry" even if you didn't do anything.

If that's what they are giving you nowadays when you buy a new car, I'd totally start driving a Ford lately [:D]
