According to an article by Erik Sass in the Dec. 24 edition of the Media Daily News, Campbell's Soup will not be neutral in the culture war. The Media Daily News reports that Campbell's will continue to use its advertising dollars to support homosexual publications pushing the homosexual agenda and same-sex marriage. AFA had asked the company to remain neutral in the culture war.
The company sponsored two pages of ads in both the December 2008 and January 2009 issues of The Advocate, the nation’s largest homosexual magazine. The ads featured the company's Swanson line of broth.
The Media Daily News article said the soup company will continue to support the homosexual agenda: "A Campbell spokesman was quoted as saying, 'Our plans for the Swanson brand include additional placements in The Advocate'."
To show their commitment to same-sex marriage, Campbell's featured two "married" lesbians and their son in one of the ads.
Send an e-mail to Campbell Soup Company President Douglas Conant. Tell him you are disappointed that Campbell's Soup has decided to support the homosexual agenda in the culture war.
After sending your e-mail, please call Campbell Soup Company (1-800-257-8443) and their Swanson division (1-800-442-7684) and express your disappointment that Campbell's is supporting same-sex marriage.
Forward this e-mail to your friends and family so they will know about Campbell's support of same-sex marriage and the homosexual agenda.
Donning flame suit now...
I don’t care if they advertise in a gay magazine. Gay people eat soup too and they are not throwing a gay agenda in mainstream America.
I’m a free market principled person and if it helps their bottom dollar, who cares?
Can you post the email for us?
That being said.... “Gay day” in Disney land ticks me off becuase it goes beyond advertising in a magazine I wouldn’t ever read anyway. But I DO go to Disney.
I believe in the free market and free speech. Thus, I will freely speak my mind to them on this issue. I will boycott their products as well.
Well that was certainly a neutral headline.
Gay people also use everything else...The point of the ad is to “promote” the gay agenda along with a product....See small print in contract
OH MY GOSH!!! An ad in a gay publication featuring two lesbians!!!
You going to boycot every grocery store that sells Campbells soup? Every store where gays shop?
I’m with you. IMO, Campbell is remaining neutral by advertising to everyone.
It’s that line of thinking that has lets radical groups become so powerful. Free market principles also say that if a company spends its money in support of radicals, then it doesn’t get my money.
Depends upon how and what they advertise more than where. Advertising soup is good business everywhere there are people who might buy soup. Advertising support for and commitment to gay marriage is something else.
How is advertising in a magazine that is the voice of a radical group, “neutral?”
You don’t have to. If people stop buying, the stores stop selling as much and put other brands on the shelf.
PUH-LEEEZE ...Just stick to making soup-for ALL PEOPLE who wish to spoon it and leave politics out of the kitchen.
You don't read very well do you:
"will continue to use its advertising dollars to support homosexual publications pushing the homosexual agenda and same-sex marriage."
The hell with a bunch of stinking homosexuals, the hell with Obama and the hell with Campbell's.
I've got two cans of Campbell's soup in the panty whose destiny has just changed from becoming stomach contents to meeting a bullet discharged from an evil black rifle.
“will continue to use its advertising dollars to support homosexual publications pushing the homosexual agenda and same-sex marriage.”
IN THE GAY MAGAZINES.
I’m sorry, I’m not “Pro-homosexual marraige”, I’m pro-advertising where it seems to fit.
If you read the rest of my post, you would see I didn’t support it being pushed in mainstream America. But in a magazine GEARED toward that group, so what?
Oh goodie. Then you will have other brands to boycot.
And I applaud you on that! Seriously I do.
I’m just saying me, myself, personally, I don’t care.
Now if I open up a Home and Garden and see this advertisement, it would be a totally different story.
Avoid the seafood bisque.
