PepsiCo’s Weak, Late NYT Tribute to Roger Enrico

Posted on June 9, 2016 by

Actually, a week late.

As the hardworking staff noted a few days ago, former PepsiCo chief Roger Enrico died last Wednesday; this New York Times obituary ran Friday. The following day Pepsi’s old Cola Wars archrival ran this full-page ad in the New York Times.

Coca-Cola classy, eh?

By contrast, it took until yesterday for PepsiCo to deliver its Times tribute.

Maybe it’s just  us, but the Coca-Cola ad seems more . . . heartfelt. We’re thinking Coke won the Cola Warmth, hands down.
