Here is one of today's articles below:
I guess I am not surprised that groups like Now and the Women’s Media Center shifted gears quickly when they realized how idiotic they looked for slamming the Tim Tebow commercial before they ever saw it. The problem is they now look even more insane as they are all in a tizzy about the Snickers and Tim Tebow commercial, claiming these ads promote violence against women. I honestly can’t believe they truly believe what they are saying; I think they were just trying to deflect the shame from all their whining the week before.
Terry O’Neill, NOW’s President said, “I am blown away at the celebration of the violence against women in it. That’s what comes across to me even more strongly than the anti-abortion message. I myself am a survivor of domestic violence, and I don’t find it charming. I think CBS should be ashamed of itself.”
Come on Terry, are you serious? With all the real violence against women in this world, this is what you are worried about? You had to be cringing as you said this; if not, I would ask whatever university you went to for your money back as they obviously failed with your education.
Here are a few of the comical rants on the Huffington Post that the Women’s Media Center said about some of the commercials:
“2 older women sacked by big, bulky football players. In what kind of culture do we live when slamming an older women into the ground makes an appearance in not one but two commercials? Snickers rags on older people by comparing lagging players to Betty White and Abe Vigoda and then slamming them into the ground. The Focus on the Family ad tried a strange stab at humor when Tim Tebow sacked his own mother. Not funny, just unsettling.”
“40 million – Estimated number of American women who tuned into the Superbowl only to see themselves maligned, sexualized, objectified, and blamed for men’s problems big and small.”
“$2.8 million – How much Focus on the Family paid CBS to attempt to pull the wool over America’s eyes. As expected, the benign ad featuring Tebow and his mom tried to hide Focus on the Family’s intolerant and divisive agenda. That the ad was allegedly ‘co-produced’ by CBS should be seen as a serious referendum on the status of women in the media.”
How can anyone ever take these organizations seriously again? What they have done is a discredit to all women and especially women who do suffer from domestic violence. They have turned themselves into the feminist who cried wolf when they really saw a little bunny rabbit, and I highly doubt they saw the rabbit from Monty Python’s Holy Grail.
Here is the Snickers ad. What do you think?
