Australian Kiteboarder Mag slams Oakley

Postby Fudge » Tue Aug 23, 2005 1:34 am

Recently, the crew at Australian Kiteboarder Mag have been sucking up to Oakley, seeking advertising.

It's not going to happen.

A year or so ago, Australian Kiteboarder Mag completely SLAMMED Oakley, claiming that anybody wearing Oakley looked like a kook or an extra from Star Wars.

Oakley is not going to advertise with Australian Kiteboarder Mag. And the mag has nobody to blame but themselves.

If Oakey preceived there was money to be made by advertizing in AK
they would probably do it no matter what was said in the mag 2 years
ago (yes, it was 2 years ago when you last posted about AK slamming
Oakley)
Business is about money, not sensibilities.
