As much as I celebrate that the guys dating service commercial got rejected…
( see https://msqueer.wordpress.com/2010/02/06/weighing-in-on-the-banned-gay-superbowl-ad/)
I TOTALLY DISAGREE WITH THE BANNING of the Go-Daddy.com “Lola” Ad.
Let’s see…we have a super-sized Afro-American portraying a retired football player who goes into the business of designing and selling specialty women’s dresses. It shows him with the ladies and the dresses doing the obvious “effeminate” thing (shame on Go-Daddy for stereotyping) but falls short of having him in drag or mounting another guy.
So once again I say… WTF????
BTW…CBS WILL be airing an anti-abortion ad by ultra conservative organization “Focus On The Family” when five years ago it REJECTED an ad from the United Church of Christ which featured a gay couple, citing their policy of dis-allowing “advocacy ads.”
So can anybody say…”Flip-Flop?” (Or does that only apply to “liberals?”)
Here’s the contact info for CBS. PLEASE SEND YOUR REACTIONS TO THIS BLATANT DISCRIMINATION! Tell them you’re going to pay very close attention to the sponsors they do run on Sunday and BOYCOTT them.
