It's a marketing piece.  I'd let it go, without the sarcastic note.  For 
certain, a note like that will climb its way up the corporate ladder and come 
back to haunt you.  If you have serious reservations about the content of the 
piece, by all means address those.  Otherwise, sit on your feelings of anger.
