Congratulations are in order for Brenda Fiala, SVP, Strategy at Blast Radius, a DGC client. She appeared on the Today Show this morning [Oct. 16, 2012] to comment on the backlash against Pizza Hut. The fast-feeder’s recent promotion promised free pizza for life to an audience member at tonight’s second presidential debate between President Barack Obama and GOP candidate Mitt Romney if that audience member asked the two men which they preferred: pepperoni or sausage as a pizza topping.

“The debate is not about whether Pizza Hut’s campaign is humorous or not,” Fiala said on Today. “The debate really is, is it appropriate for a brand to insert itself commercially into a public forum?”

The debate will be televised live from Hofstra University.
