[...] TechCrunch first noticed the happy mistake and poignantly asked whether this is really bad or really good ad placement. The happy mistake seems to ask, “Did you just lose another boat load of money? Have three fingers of sweet Tennessee sour mash, and pretty soon you won’t care.” Well, that’s what we took from the ad. And, even though we didn’t lose any money yesterday (mostly because we don’t have any to lose) we did partake in a few fingers of whiskey. Thanks Jack! [...]

You notice my initials are JD but never touch the stuff. Alcohol is a device of the devil to ruin peoples lives and that’s all I’m going to say about that!!!!!

I think you can be a bit prudish about the ad but really I don’t think it is an issue at all.

Oh please. If you think this is cynical, you’re probably in a flurry after each Simpsons episode you see.

It’s a fun idea by a beverage company, not more. Stop pondering over screenshots so much.

Unfortunate ad placement? I strongly beg to differ.

Would an ad for Viagra help get the market up…?

Indeed.

The new “tip jar” is a disable of Adblock Plus on websites you truly care for.

This ad has been running for months on market watch. I have a better screen cap when the market was down 650 points: http://twitpic.com/fcb3

Great revelant product placement. My guess is that this placement is deliberate. Buy luxury goods the days the mkt is up, and drown your sorrows when its down.

Divide the amount of money being pumped into banks by the reserve requirements and it is not difficult to see that things will turn around.

The mean lead time for these types of events is about 8-10 months. There will be more pain but around July we should start to see improvement. Until then, stock up on Dramamine….

Bet it wasn’t unintentional. Maybe they waited for a day like yesterday (here in Asia it’s already tomorrow).

i think is a good idea. An semi – interactive ad… they have to only ad a condition… if market is going up then shows this kind, if not use another one.
