Each week Bestads picks the very best advertising in the world, in every
medium - which is reviewed by a top creative director or team to select
their own personal favourites.

This week's guest judge is Sharon Refael, executive creative director, Y&R, Israel.

Everybody talks about the death of Ideology and the vast use of fake
news by our leaders, who are supposed to serve as our moral compass...

existing stereotypes in marketing messages and have an important impact
on culture.
