ADVERTISING agency Lonsdale Saatchi & Saatchi has denounced an allegation that the company is engaged in a political smear campaign.

'Lonsdale Saatchi & Saatchi Advertising Limited, along with its Executive Chairman, Kenrick Attale, categorically refutes the baseless and defamatory allegations made by the 'Kick Out the PNM' Facebook page, which falsely claims that our agency is engaged in a smear campaign in collaboration with a political party and two media houses,' the company said in a media statement yesterday.

'Since our establishment in 1953, Lonsdale Saatchi & Saatchi has remained committed to ethical advertising and has never participated in any election campaign in any capacity. These accusations are entirely false and without merit,' the statement added.
