Sorry Mao
Citroen is apologizing for poking fun at the late Chinese dictator Mao Zedong.
The French carmaker's sin was running ran ads which featured a smirking Mao and the tagline: "It's true, we are leaders, but at Cirtoen the revolution never stops."
Seems this offended somebody in China, so Cirtoen, no doubt fearing the Alberta Human Rights Commission might get involved, said it was sorry.
Just goes to show that you can't even mock mass murderers anymore.
