Here's a Halloween blog post from John Thompson on UK Fundraising from 2013.
A #Halloween blog from my archive: When companies cock-up, is just saying sorry then paying a charity “fine” the best solution? Previous corporate cock-ups, such as Asda and Tesco’s mental patient/psycho ward Halloween costume fiascos, set the internet on fire. "The flickering embers of angry tweets fired-off by disgruntled individuals, often demanding a massive donation to charity, suddenly get swept up by a howling wind of widespread outrage that’s fanned by tabloids intent on stoking up a good story. Unless these situations are swiftly brought under control, corporate images can quickly succumb to third degree burns."
