V12man Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 Having looked further at the pic, beyond the cyclist being run over. Woman screaming in taxi, in a city where violence against women and hijacking are rife. Taxi driver displayed as a black dog. No other black people in the picture. The world is about to become quite complex for the Breakfast Express.As it should - same as it did for John Robbie for a few inadvertent comments.... well, he said they were anyway..
Spez247 Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 Always thought F@ckHead was an idiot. Now he has left no space for doubt....As for his listener base - say no more. The whole image is in poor taste.
V12man Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 Metropolitan CEO is now aware.... they own a big piece of Momentum... give it an hour or two.... who is going to tweet Jeremy Mansfield?
Vangar Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 Comments on the Facebook page and the pick are a Joke. Don't know how the hell they even allowed this one in.
Quincy Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 There's a big uproar on the comments section of the picture.
Wayne Potgieter Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 Dunno whats worse. That 947 allowed the entry or that there are that many sickos that voted for it.
KarlvN Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 I am disgusted and outraged by Primedia's blatant and arrogant disregard for the people of this country, not only cyclists, but for all people in general who have been and are offended by this heinous disgrace of an advertising promotion. Sis! So the driver is a black dog? And please, don't come with the "tongue in cheek angle" Primedia. It is way too late for that. And in light of the recent cycling related accidents in SA, I am particularly disgusted by the sick and distasteful way in which they portray cycling in our country. our roads are not safe, and now may be even less so, thanks to Primedia's efforts in this regard. I am sure that Alriza Reid's family must think this is extremely humerous, not to mention Cherise Stander's opinion on the matter...and as I am writing this, the latest news...https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/143704-cyclist-down-in-sandton/

Pee off the animal rights activists while you're at it. The oke that won is apparently a graphic designer for Sun International.

Juanhein20 Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 This Picture is in bad taste.I must admit to having great laughs at some of his pranks but this picture went to far!!! Everyday we have to be so careful to be safe on the roads and now they make fun of a very bad situation.
kingalton Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 as I said on twitter, they problem is, it is a pretty true reflection of what is going on at the moment.. I don't know from which angle the designer was coming from, but it may not meant to be designed as funny, but rather as a sad truth of what is happening ? Cyclist being mowed downPotholes so big, kids can swim in themtaxis driving like dogsGiraffes being taken out by overhead bridges...
Wyatt Earp Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 I have only one thing to say.Viva MIX FM 93.8 .
MTBc Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 I have only one thing to say.Viva MIX FM 93.8 . Hell yeah.
