Kenneth Cole is an asshole.



Tweets today by the man himself, The Worst Copywriter in the History of Advertising™. (thanks to Scott Ross for the tip.) Update: Hole has deleted the tweet and written an apology on facebook (thanks Bucky).

While Ken's puns have been offending some of us writers for years, it's now time to be offended on a human level. Don't make light of being on the hot end of a Molotov Cocktail or the sharp end of a jagged piece of curb.

The second tweet is worse than the first. The first is just a lame gag. The second contains two outright lies and exacerbates the first by failing to apologise for it.

Some people think a justification will serve as an apology. It so won't.

If only you were endorsing his strategy, you could have used the headline 'Pyramid Selling'.

Wow, anonymous 1. In your rush to condemn him for making light of Egypt's struggles, you're making light of rape.

Cole is an asshole for the 2nd tweet. He was only an idiot after the first one.
