Quote from Tequila on the Hamilton hate site

Taken from the Guardian

Yesterday TBWA's corporate website in Spain was still running a page boasting of the success of pinchalaruedadehamilton.com which it said had received almost half a million hits from 139 countries.

The company said the site had been set up to support Alonso.

"It was absolutely necessary to set up a microsite supporting the Spanish champion," the TBWA site said, referring to Alonso. "That is why it has been such a spectacular success."

Sounds like crap to me; this site should've been moderated and any excuse to convince you otherwise is just irresponsible.

What's more is what the hell is the deal singling out Hamilton especially after the problems over the Spanish Grand Prix.

To me all this says is that in order to promote Alonso they need to belittle Hamilton which to be honest is the wrong way to go about promoting anything. It shows weakness and desperation. I hope the PR people for Alonso will think very carefully about new activity as anything they do that's detromental to Hamilton will just give him more public support.
