The Family Guy

Subject: The Family Guy
Paul Brent does a good job in his article titled, ' The Family Guy,' outlining the obivous dumbing down of the male in advertising and marekting.

He does not point out some obvious other truths to the equasion. Or maybe he does not want to face reality. Or maybe he is afraid to.

The fact of the matter it is the, 'white' dumb Dad that has become the foil in either sitcoms or advertising.

The advertising industry would be falling all over itself to fix commercials, promotions, or marketing material if they portrayed any other identifiable group in Canada, even before the rath of the avenged minority group began.

They will not do the same for the white male.

Keeping in mind that the white male represents less than 50% of the voters showing up to vote, and to buy.

The worst it seems today is either the idiot they have on the new Canadian Tire commercials or the idiots they have in the advertising for erectile dysfunction drugs.

All you have to do is weigh the volume of money that is raised and spent for breast cancer research and prevention against the amount of money raised and spent in the area of Prostate Cancer to find out that Adult men, and in particular fathers, really have gone, have gone from ' hero to zero .'

Maybe men should take this upcoming fathers' day and stop shopping or doing business with those companies that are the offenders.
Thank you
