Google 2009: Image ads are not being synced correctly

This bug could be an change on how Google responds to requests for information

on image ads. On or about 4/9 transition date, editors began noticing problems

with Google image ad reporting using creatives. The reports contain:

image: null

to describe the image

when previously they had contained information suffiecient for some

identification of the ad:

image: \n IndiaLD_B1_300x250\n IndiaLD.com

To duplicate you can run a report for IndiaLD in production.

If you look at searchEngineListings you can see the problem:

select distinct(title), count from searchEngineListings where

searchEngineAccountID in (select id from tsacommon.searchEngineAccounts where

accountID=645) and searchEngineStatus= 'ok' group by title;

Because of the way the creative service works, it appears that old data may be

effected as well as new.
