Clever, bad taste or self-serving

I came across this press release on the web today.  It’s from TransMedia Group [FLASH warning] and it tells how the “first casualty of the war on Iraq was not a coalition soldier, sailor or pilot. It was one of TransMedia Group’s clients.”

It goes on to explain how they had to cancel a press conference because the war started.

Eh?  Thoughts?  The company is our newest addition to the hall of shame.
