Christian mom group offended by holiday JCP ad with Ellen and elves

12/7/2012

If someone were to protest the J.C. Penney Co. holiday ad that Ellen DeGeneres made with elves and cookies, you'd think it would be for not being very funny, but a Christian moms group objects to the ad because the openly gay DeGeneres is in it. One Million Moms reportedly posted a message on its website saying JCP had offended "a huge majority of their customers" and called on Christians to "vote with their wallets." Interestingly, after generating significant coverage, the message was taken down, and the group's director told the Christian Post it was backing away and "moving on." Early Friday morning, the OMM site was itself inaccessible — perhaps the work of Santa’s elves? [Source]
