So, I am very bad about not watching advertisements. Tonight, I was watching Stephen Colbert http://www.cbs.com/shows/the-late-show-with-stephen-colbert/. He did a piece on a Campbell's soup advertisement http://www.campbellsoupcompany.com/newsroom/news/2015/10/05/campbells-new-portfolio-advertising-campaign-celebrates-real-life-moments/. Specifically, he showed the advertisement of a gay couple feeding their son Star Wars Soup. This advertisement was being protested by One Million Moms http://onemillionmoms.com/.
Colbert made the point that if the One Million Moms group had not made such a big deal about the ad, most of the rest of us would not have thought much about it. On the other hand, now Campbell's is getting free advertising, and the One Million Moms group are looking like the haters they are!
