Cheerio Commercial (1) |
I am going
to include a link concerning this commercial and the ensuing article I read from the Huffington Post. It is so sad that there are people in a
country of immigrants that cannot get past its racist history and I guess this
is on both sides of the color aisle. I am not sure.
Personally,
folks need to move on. People are people and the commercial represented one of those typical family units that
exist in this country, like it or not, it cannot be changed. The company was doing what it is supposed to do and that is to target growing segments of the population in order to increase sales. I congratulate Kellogg for not backing down.
To those haters amongst us, why show your “back side” on something that is completely
out of your control? Why don’t you put that anger and energy into a positive
return?
Peace Diana
