A company that sells alcohol is upset over offensive content

I'm sure most of you know the cockgobblers at the PTC, who love to go on rants and tireads about "deceny" in programming.

They pressure companies into dropping shows they deem offensive.

They have recently targeted the best show on television "Nip/Tuck"

Oddly enough, one of the companies they (claim to have) recieved a response from that agreed to drop their ads was Coors.

So, a company that produces alcohol, which destroys more families than a bare ass on television suddenly has issues about show content.

From the PTC website:

Excerpt from an Email from Coors in response to member complaints

Coors is able to select a timeframe in which we want our commercials to air. Ultimately, however, the network has the final say as to which programs will air during any given time. In this case, Coors had not opted to air any ads during the timeframe that Nip/Tuck was to be shown. FX made the decision to run Nip/Tuck during an extended period, and because we had chosen this timeframe prior to programming, we were locked in. We can assure you, no Coors' ads are scheduled to run during this program for the remainder of the season.

fucking insanity!
fuck these christian cocksuckers!
I'm going to start my own letter writing campaigns to the advertisers who pussied out because of these do-gooder motherfuckers...

for fuck's sake "Nip/Tuck" is an adult show that comes on at 10pm when kids should be in bed and there are [plenty of warnings that the show isn't Mr. fucking Rogers......

Just sent off an email to Coors, telling them in a civilized way that they are a bunch of pussies.

excellent idea!
you just might be on to something...

In a wee bit of seriousness, the email I fired off to Coors was spellchecked, was profanity-free and was written in a reasonably intelligent manner....

I kept my threats to "I'll buy your competitors' products as well as educate others on you being a wuss company who backs down to a bunch of religious nutjobs who probably don't even consume your product anyways" type of stuff...

coors is running for senate. The PTC's advisory council is highly weighted to left.

Their response was tactful and in reality means nothing.
