5. Oh...we are onto that too! We just signed about 3 Petitions to our Gubmit
working for this Change!

This is just a "Sideline." It's GROSS...that disgusting Rita Cosby/MSRNC ad! And it never ends...Clicking between DU Forums it appears OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVE!

It's so hard to be "tolerant" these days. :eyes:

2. Jump on. Yeeowch!
Settle down slowly on instead. Repeatedly. But that graphic would get banned, I fear!

4. I think it's much worse that
you're encouraging female DUers to jump on a male member.

8. True. There should be equal opportunity objectification.
If we men can have our exploitative sex objects, then it stands to reason that women should have theirs too. So far, only gay men are taking up the slack. Come on ladies, you gotta catch up!

9. You know...you've hit the nail on the head, here. Why Not?
EQUAL OPPORTUNITY? We females have been fighting to get "diversity" for ages. And now that Gloria Steinham is "outta the picture" should we give up?

The Ad Buy is Offensive to many of us DU'ers. But the dilemna is that Skinner..et al, need the Ad Revenue to keep this site going without begging too much to the viewers. So...they subscribe to this "Ad Package" thinking it's not so bad...MSRNC is giving big bucks to buy time for Rita Cosby's "Failing Raitings" so...DU and Josh Marshall and other Lib Blogs say..."Okay...what the Hell...we need the money and we have alot of Diversity that won't mind the Ad.

So..they take the "Titties AD" and some of their website viewers have a BIG PROBLEM WITH IT....But in the end, it's all about the $$$$$$$'s to keep the website going...

It's a hard call, for us "moralists" to deal with it. STILL...I want to see Male Porn and a big NEON PENIS promoted on Liberal Websites before I "cave" on my position on this. Why is it only "Tit's and ASS" that get Advertising? Where is the Balls and Staff? :shrug:

18. I agree
I don't find it offensive, but it is sexist and annoying and opportunistic. And, it's just rude - 'specially since the female silhouette is totally unreal - kinda like Barbie before before Mattel "fixed" her.

Also, the neon is, IMO, not appropriate on DU since many of us check DU at the office. I had to turn off the graphic because I'm a manager at work and just cannot have people thinking I'm viewing porn!

OH, and yeah, the link to MSRNC demands that I use MSIE, which I don't, so the ad is wasted on me. Doesn't mean I still don't think it's out of place.

22. Yes...some DU'ers posted on other threads today about their Workplace
seeing them looking at a "screen" with that stuff up thinking they are into Porn. Their Managers might start "monitoring" their e-mail thinking they are into "hard stuff" ...kiddie porn and the rest.

It's not something we Libs need to have sitting up their on our screens these days with PATRIOT ACT breathing down our necks.

23. The graphic just doesn't belong on a Political Discussion Forum
I don't know why this has become a big deal. It's just not appropriate.

12. That Jesus thing is priceless!
The "God Who Wasn't There" ad that we have up here on DU isn't half as good as that one. Beautiful parody of the ad in question.

BTW, I just watched the clip for "The God Who Wasn't There." I'll definitely be checking that one out, if only there was a TX screening.

15. Agree...the "Ad Buy" that DU Got...isn't the same as Josh Marshall.
While I think Josh's Body Bomb is MORE OFFENSIVE...his Jesus Promotion seems to be much less confrontational and more inviting than Skinner's Ad Buy...

Seems the "Ad Marketers" sort of "shopped it around for approval amongst the Lib Web Sites?"

19. Eh, it's just a graphic icon used to symbolize the subject of the
Edited on Mon Dec-12-05 09:25 PM by Lorien
program. Considering what other images they could have used, it's pretty darn tame. Besides, women aren't the biggest consumers of porn, men are.

But what do I know, I do idealized female pin-ups for Hard Rock cafe from time to time (I'd draw men too-if they asked for them), and I used to have a prostitute as a roommate-not that I'm endorsing any of it, mind you. The reality of it all is that the industry exists, and MSRNC is going to try to profit from it in a pseudo "respectable" way.
