- The main charge against the Clan Campbell-led British army over the Glencoe Massacre was the betrayal of the MacDonalds' hospitality by the billeted soldiers; a much-later inquiry found the Commander guilty of "Murder Under Trust". The two clans have been at each other's throats ever since, to the point where there are still pubs in traditional MacDonald country that forbid Campbells from drinking there. This old Scottish feud was brought to the attention of (some segments of) the American public by "Time & Life", Episode 11 of Season 7 of Mad Men, in which an administrator of an exclusive Connecticut preschool who happens to be a MacDonald invokes the massacre as a reason for denying admission to Pete Campbell's four-year-old daughter, and fights Pete. This episode is set in 1970.

- In the television series Mad Men, it is implied that the Campbell–MacDonald feud is still active as of 1970, when Pete Campbell's daughter is rejected from an elite New York preschool headed by a MacDonald.
