No Soup and Pepsi for me. I'm cleaning out the cupboards. They can keep their politics out of my mouth.

Thanks for posting the list of products I’ll be boycotting. Maybe also some other Campbell-annoying things I won’t mention. ;)

Pepsi is also giving lots of money to these groups. Lots = $500,000

They are entitled to their point of view. I do not need to buy their products.

a company spokesperson explaining, "Inclusion and diversity play an important role in our business, and that fact is reflected in our marketing plan."

I guess this pencil necked geek and his retarded superiors have forgotten that there are consequences to any action.

For every one homosexual they get to but their products they will lose 1000 normal people.

Campbell’s Soup has honed a family image that has seen it flourish over the decades. If they value the sales to 1 to 2% of the public over the sales to 98% of the public, they can have that market segment, and I’ll go elsewhere.

It’s time the normal public started telling these activists and activist companies right where to go. I’ll be doing so with my purchasing dollars.

Tnx for the product list. They’ll never see my cupboard again. I’m neutral on gays, but gay adverts are over the limit.

I’m not sure what the big deal is here. They’re simply targeting a demographic in their own publications. How likely are you to read them, or see the ads? If they ran an ad in Ebony or Jet, I’d imagine it would have black people in it. I could understand the upset if it were a Superbowl ad, but why is this such a problem?

Ah jeez it’s a gay magazine. I don’t agree with porn either, does that mean I should boycott those companies who try to make a buck off their readers? Rush Limbaugh always says he’s running a business. So is Campbells. What do I care if they advertise in a magazine I would never even hear of if it wasn’t for this post? This is not like they are advertising on cable or broadcast.
It’s groups like these with their reactions that make all us conservatives and Christians look like we are overly concerned with individual people’s lives. If you want, don’t buy Campbells soup. From what I understand, the sodium content is so high it’s hardly something worth buying anyhow.

Wow I can’t think of a more family-oriented brand image than Campbell’s Soup. But they’ve decided to chuck this carefully built brand identity down the toilet.

More evidence that traditional dominance of Christian values in American culture is dead. I really think that the church will be driven underground in the USA in my kids’ lifetimes.

There needs to be some research and an article here about PR departments in all the big corporations.

They are cntrolled by gays.

So that means that the university departments that educate people in PR are also all pretty well dominated by gays.

It’s not just Campbells, it’s the in-your-face Miller beer ads, Absolut, and in fact just about every PR department anywhere.

There’s going to be a lot more ‘gay’ ads for common products because of this fact.

And no, the gays in the PR departments don’t care that they are only 1 - 3% of the population, they have to pretend they are a big market share.

They aren’t

Might just as well demand that left-handed redheaded people be marketed to.

It’s just another organization to sieze from the top and turn into a propaganda engine, like the Episcopal church.

They are taking over the PR departments everywhere. Expect more gay ads from Quaker State oil and Paymaster horse feed and Sears and Citgo and etc. etc.

It’s MSG (neurotoxic with long term cumulative damage) in a can.

No matter what your sexuality, you should stay away from that cr@p.

Campbell's is was a main staple in our family. I guess we need to find an alternative.
