Here is my message to Slim-Fast:
I have been a faithful user of SlimFast, and although it has performed as advertised., I am writing you to tell you that I will cease buying your product as long as Whoopi Goldberg is your corporate "face". Her comments at a recent Kerry fundraiser are beyond the pale. I have several issues with the President, but if I had a public personna as Ms Goldberg I would measure my comments knowing what that personna is. Free speech is fine , and a protected right, but also words should have consequences. She is free to say as she likes, but I am also free to spend my money where I like. Free speech is fine for people like Ms Goldberg when they are speaking, but when an opposing view is stated, suddenly free spech is not so important. And so to reiterate, I shall not be spending any of my money on SlimFast as long as she is your corporate face.
Regards,
