Boeing
Problem 1: Boeing recently ran an ad for their Osprey helicopter, which showed soldiers rappelling out of the helicopter into your typical Iraqi town. Prepared by TM Advertising in Irving, Texas, the copy reads "It descends from the heavens. Ironically it unleashes hell," reads the ad.
Unfortunately, the ad shows soldiers rappelling from the aircraft onto the roof of a MOSQUE. Oops. Hello? Unleashing hell on mosques? Repeat after me: "Crusades!" There was an understandable outrage.
Problem 2: after somebody pointed out their insensitivity, Boeing and their agency apologized ... and then ran the ad again!
