THAT a copy writer might have thought the Hitler advertisement a clever piece of advertising is an appalling commentary on the state of the art here in Hong Kong. That the station supervisors at ATV might have thought this ad would woo viewers and advertisers shows a lack of mature judgment. That any company would find humour in the phrase 'final solution' beggars belief. All these people, then, may need a bit of encouragement to review their advertising strategies. I shall do my part by refusing to watch ATV or to purchase any product or service advertised by the station until ATV publicly apologises and repudiates this advertisement. I shall also encourage everyone I know to adopt a similar resistance. PETER STAMBLER Fo Tan
