Once again, the “American family” group's knickers are tightly knotted.
Here's their press release regarding Geico's latest ad featuring "Maxwell" the pig:
Geico has succeeded in offending its customers with this inappropriate advertisement. One Million Moms has received numerous complaints because Geico's new commercial plays with the idea of bestiality. Parents find this type of advertising repulsive and unnecessary. Airing a commercial with an animal in it will surely grab children's attention, but this is a horrible commercial for families to see. Geico does not have our children's best interest in mind. The Geico Marketing Team may have thought this would be humorous, but it is disgusting to see how the company takes lightly the act of bestiality. Let Geico know their new ad is irresponsible.
This is the second time the Moms have protested perceived bestiality in a major TV ad. Previously, they clucked their tongues over this Skittles walrus commercial.
