On May 16th I posted an entry entitled The Public Is Stupid, talking about how networks cave too easily to overly sensitive conservative groups.
Today, I just read about an example of an advertiser bowing to pressure.
Take a look at this ad:
Bowing to pressure, Dunkin Donuts has pulled this ad from print, TV etc.
Can you guess why?
A group has claimed that her scarf, which I have seen on hundreds of women (and a few men), that can bought at any mall, any store etc...is (drumroll) SHOWING THAT RACHEL RAY SUPPORTS EXTREME FUNDAMENTALIST MUSLIMS.
You heard here folk, Rachel Ray is a terrorist.
And as I wrote in my previous post, if ONE person writes a letter, everyone panics.
Some people have WAY too much time on their hands.
