Brief When Zee News engaged us, they hurled three bouncers at us -Be perceived as the news channel with a distinct point of view
Stand out in the red ocean of Pakistan bashing
Go miserly on paid media
Doesn’t sound difficult unless you take it into account the 821 TV news channels in India
And February 15th was an opportunity no brand could afford to miss being the India vs Pakistan cricket match
 
Solution
Brands have explored routes like installing live scoreboards
Scoreboards?Keeping score of Overs, runs & wicketsWICKETS! Ours seemed to be in a hurryWith,
India 0 for the loss of 546030
Pakistan 0 for the loss of 546228After India won the match the copy changed
WHEN LIVES ARE LOST NO ONE WINS
Which meant no one won by losing their sons
Candles were lit in memory of the fallen

A timely knock indeed !
