Here’s the EXACT EMAIL and reply I got from JCP.
Note the reply is first, followed by a copy of my original email.
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on our Ellen commercials and partnership!
As we focus on being in sync with the rhythm of our customers’ lives and operating in a ‘Fair and Square’ manner that is rooted in integrity, simplicity and respect, we couldn’t think of a better person than Ellen DeGeneres. We are extremely proud to have her on our team.

Comments: Over the years, my family has spent many thousands of dollars at JC Penny. Due to your support for anti-family ELLEN, we will no longer be shopping at JC PENNY. You might try having someone who represents families rather than destroys them as a spokesperson.

There was a time when retail stores were about selling goods and not about social agendas, a time when the military was about protecting the country, not running social experiments, a time when schools were about educating minds, not teaching sexual moves to our children. What in the world has happened in this country? There is now NOTHING that is free of politics and social agendas, from the bags we put our groceries in, to the politically correct foods we buy, to the cars we drive, the clothes we wear, the entertainers we watch, the light bulbs we use. There is no peace, no refuge from their tight-lipped determined agendas to have power over us. Even our private friendships and family ties are under direct assault.
