I don't know if you have seen the commercial. It starts off portraying a mid thirties family with two young children happily going on a weekend outing. all good times. Then the wife and kids drop off Dad...kids give him a big long hug and say, see you next week. you don't know it is a divorce situation until that moment. Then the Ford statement comes...Bold moves. My issue with this commercial is that it shows a very liberal view of a family situation portraying divorce as a happy situation. In reality, a majority percentage of children from divorced families have difficulties.
so, IMO it sends a terrible message....certainly not a message that would lead me to think of, Be Bold. Get a divorce. Buy a Ford and be happy. And..again, IMO, anyone who could buy into that philosophy is probably..Far Left.
In conclusion...Ford is also getting a lot of heat from advertising in a certain magazine that caters to a minority group of males. And, they are not conservatives.
