The thing is, I agree with the message of this PSA from MoveOn.Org, but at the same time, it irks me in the same way PETA’s campaigns irk me (though, admittedly, this is much less egregious than most of PETA’s stuff)…Can’t these people see the contradiction in defending the “public option” while offending half of that public? When will organizations that should know better stop voyeuristically exploiting and objectifying women’s bodies to make their (often otherwise valid) points?
On a further note, this spot also reeks of fat bashing to me…sure, shoving a Big Mac unceremoniously into one’s face like the man in this video isn’t very good for you, but not everyone who doesn’t have Heather Graham’s body is an overeating, lazy glutton.
