Guest guest Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 From Gilmore Keep Up the Pressure on Big Brother Advertisers, Lowe's pulls ads Keep Up the Pressure on Big Brother Advertisers Take Action! Lowe's pulls ads, Geico on the brink Keep up the pressure on Big Bother advertisers. CBS has yet to do anything about broadcasting references to people with autism as “retards” on their Big Brother program. We have also learned the the non-profit organization that Adam Jasinski closed shop and took down their websites on Friday. The calls are working. Lowe’s has pulled it’s advertising and we have reason to believe that Geico may be close to pulling their ads. Please use the numbers below to contact Big brother’s advertisers. And please click on the Take Action button and complete the email to send a message to the decision-makers.As most of you know, last week people with autism were called " retards " on the Big Brother Program on CBS. CBS has refused to apologize for the incident and disavows any responsibility for the content of their programming. CBS is really trying to treat people with autism as second-class citizens. They are ignoring precedents set by themselves as Big Brother in other situations where groups of people were demeaned: · Last year CBS bleeped a reference to the term " retard " on the Great Race program, · Contestants on Big Brother have been dropped for making racially-insulting comments. · We have also learned that Chen, the host of Big Brother, is married to CBS president Moonves. Please call the following advertisers and politely inform them how Big Brother treats people with autism, that CBS has refused to apologize, and that we would like them to advertise with programs that treat all people with respect just like Lowe's has.Please be very polite to whoever you speak to, for all we know they could have a loved one with autism too.These advertisers were selected because their products are frequently purchased by parents for children: CSC Brands LP ( 's Soup and Prego spaghetti sauce), Phone: 856-342-4800, Fax: 856-342-3878 Mc's, Phone: 630-623-3000, Fax: 630-623-5211 Taco Bell, Yum Brands, Inc., 949-863-4500.
