THE 50 GAYT ADS EVER
I recently disvered that Hulu, a pany offerg streamg of TV shows, movi and other vio ntent, is nng a homosexual-themed advertisement durg fay/kids programmg. Do the people at Hulu really thk the parents want their young kids exposed to a homosexual-themed ad? Obvly, many bs today want to be what they nsir hip, and pani such as Hulu often have management and employe who are maly liberal and who have a skewed view of the world; addn, homosexuals are a mographic wh great disposable e, so they’re fely part of Nordstrom’s ctomer base.
Th, even if you’re a pletely amoral marketg executive who worships the dollar, shouldn’t occur to you that a homosexual-themed ad durg tradnalist fay programmg is self-featg? In ntrast, homosexuals are two percent of the populatn.
