New Zealand - New Zealand firm pulls Hitler pizza ads

A New Zealand ad campaign showing Adolf Hitler clutching a piece of pizza in a Nazi salute has been withdrawn after complaints from the public.

The billboards advertising the Hell Pizza chain were part of a series showing famous people from history.

The image along with a quote from the Nazi leader -- "It is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell" - was used on billboards in four of New Zealand’s main cities.
