Pepsi faces lawsuit over TV ad

Business Report - Pepsi faces child labour lawsuit over ad (AFP via Business Report, South Africa)

A Pepsi ad shows the Indian cricket team in a huddle celebrating the fall of a wicket when a child carrying a tray of Pepsi pops up from an underground tunnel.

A rights activist filed suit alleging the commercial shows child labour and a court in Hyderabad has ordered that the ad be taken off the air.

it is a bit silly.
everyone knows child labour is a reality.
this law suit seems a little far fetched.
