Great moments in government relations PR

Amazon.com listing had Barack Obama Halloween mask under 'terrorist'

I have a question for Jeff Bezos, what does a stunt like this do to the image of Amazon? There is a real possibility that not only will Obama win; but that he will win big. So how do you think his supporters feel about Amazon? Can Amazon afford a fight with Obama's supporters? And why would you pick such a fight? What is the upside?

In the event of an Obama victory, what is this going to do to your relations with the new administration?

One more question, are you proud of this stunt?
