Easter bunny controversy
An Easter ad campaign recently generated controversy over in Europe. A Swiss shopping center promoted the opening of a new shop by running an advertisement showing a rabbit that (through the magic of photoshop) appeared to be wearing a pair of panties. A representative from an animal protection group said, "From our point of view, the respect of the rabbit has been badly damaged." And went on to suggest that the image could promote unwholesome feelings of desire towards animals.
This isn't the first time WU has reported on an Easter bunny controversy. Two years ago we called attention to an ad for Cadbury's caramel nibbles that featured a similarly provocative rabbit.

The Perfect Easter Egg
A bacon Easter egg! I'd certainly fill it differently, but the idea is deliciously appealing!

Happy Easter 2013!
Personally, I think it's weird that we can peek at our ancestors from nearly 85 years ago. Be sure to catch the sylph-like dancing starting around the four-minute mark.
