Irish (and other) cultural stories frequently get used in advertising campaigns – particularly where the base story can be linked to an ‘Irish’-related product. A lot of the time however, those advertisements can be misrepresentative or simply get things wrong.
Take this Guinness campaign for the Guinness-sponsored All-Ireland Hurling Championship, for example. If you look closely, you’ll see that one of the three Cú Chulainn images in the advertising campaign got its sources mixed up. Can you tell which one it was?
Photo A (The Bull)
(b) Photo B (The Giant)
Photo C (The Hound)
If you can’t work it out, you’ll find the answer in the original post HERE.
Think it’s B. The Giant’s Causeway is a Fionn Mac Camhail story. First is The Tain, Second how the boy got his name, if that’s a hound he’s about to dispatch.
