BREAKING: Ford has agreed to no longer sponsor gay events
by John in DC - 12/07/2005 11:16:00 AM
It's over. Ford lied.
For days Ford has been saying this is just about a few ads. For days
Ford has been saying they didn't agree to anything. And for days Ford
has been saying Volvo will continue marketing to the gay community.
Not true.
We now find out that Ford has agreed to stop supporting gay events. We
now find out that Ford's Volvo ads will continue in gay publications,
but the ads will no longer target the gay community - meaning, they'll
use generic ads that they're using elsewhere.
Ford didn't just lie, they caved to the AFA big time. A major US
corporation is no longer supporting gay and lesbian organizations -
something it did to a large degree in the past - because an extremist
gay-hating hate group threatened them.
