Newsflash! Update!

Hot on the heels of yesterday’s hilarious video of a Macquarie worker being sprung looking at porn on the job in the background of a live news cross, comes an even more hilarious advertising hook by rival HSBC.

Here’s the video again:

And here is the advertisement that appeared in the Sydney Morning Herald today from HSBC, who state “We spend more time looking at your assets!”:

Absolute genius!

    I call fake…but a very amusing one none the less.

    Honestly, I can't say for sure that it's real – the SMH is a Sydney paper, and I'm in Melbourne, so I've not physically seen it, but as you say – quite amusing. I notice your IP address belongs to HSBC, so you'd have more chance to confirm it than I!
