According to the headline, that you have agreed is often the only thing people read, AFA is being misleading:

Wal-Mart Contributes 5% Of Online Sales To Homosexual Group


That is the headline. AFA does not say that only sales from click thrus from that one particular website, they just say ONLINE SALES...........as you saw through this thread, even FReepers, who are supposedly so media savvy took the headline to mean ALL WM online sales kicked back a 5% to the organization.

You apparently have no understanding of media and PR...AFA does and they have hoodwinked many into believing they have limited resources and aren't capable of looking into things in further detail.

Bravo Sierra. AFA has done exactly what it set out to do - get narrow minded bigots to jump on the bandwagon that WalMart is evil and promoting the homosexual agenda.

I happen to be media savvy, having spent darn near 30 years involved with it in one way or another. AFA is good in their media savvy, they have played people like you just like a violin to get you to do what they want. When it comes to PR, they are no different than any other group.

But I would venture to say that this time around they are going to wind up with mud on their faces, as they are the ones promoting these homosexual groups with their constant harping on it. These groups just have to sit back and reap the benefits of the stir created by AFA.

So now it's just back to the headline which isn't what you previously said. You are being very inconsistent as you change the object of your disagreement. You've been talking about:
inaccurate and misleading press releases
and not headlines. If you really think headlines always provide the full story then you really are naive, for that is not the purpose of headlines. You have nothing to stand on here.

You apparently have no understanding of media and PR.

There you go again, assuming. You've assumed to know what the AFA knows and their reasons for the press release, all without getting a single byte of information directly from the AFA. And now you assume to know what I know. Because we disagree you assume this successful self-employed person with whom you disagree has no understanding of the issues. I'm still in the business, Gabz, you aren't.

Bravo Sierra. AFA has done exactly what it set out to do - get narrow minded bigots to jump on the bandwagon that WalMart is evil and promoting the homosexual agenda.

So now people who agree with the family friendly AFA are bigots. Interesting choice of words, Christian.

I happen to be media savvy, having spent darn near 30 years involved with it in one way or another. AFA is good in their media savvy, they have played people like you just like a violin to get you to do what they want. When it comes to PR, they are no different than any other group.

Talk about getting played. You've apparently fallen for the homosexual agenda.

But I would venture to say that this time around they are going to wind up with mud on their faces, as they are the ones promoting these homosexual groups with their constant harping on it. These groups just have to sit back and reap the benefits of the stir created by AFA.

It's something called engagement. Perhaps you've heard this before, but the healthy don't need a doctor, the sick do. People who care get involved. We get engaged with issues that affect our culture.
