Some Pig Wants You to Bring Out Your Dead

Oink Ink Radio needs entries for its 11th annual Dead Radio contest.

“Disheartened copywriters are invited to submit their best radio scripts that have been rejected, passed up, and left to collect dust. Oink then treats the winning copywriter to an expense-paid weekend in either New York or Los Angeles, homes to Oink studios.”

In other words, scripts that should by all rights be left dead are given a chance to live — all expenses paid. According to Oink Ink, past winners have gone on to win Addys and Mercurys and Clios and whatnot.

Greeeeeat. What’s more depressing than most UGC campaigns? Some actual creative’s “baby” that just didn’t make the cut.

So what are you waiting for? “BRING OUT YOUR DEAD!” Oink proclaims, like a medieval custodian of bodies infected with the black plague.

Entries will be accepted until May 31.
