Great Letter to Ford!! - A Parody!

I kind of detest people who advertise their homosexuality with flags and stickers.

Yeah, you're gay. Get over it.

WOW......but I guess you like all the Christian freaks with their little stickers, or all the American flag stickers? Maybe you want to crawl back into the closet and hide Capn, but those of us who have been on the planet a long time, NEVER will again.......that is a REALLY stupid statement.

did you destest Gay pride in SJ or SF? I DON'T THINK SO.......

The Detroit News and the Detroit Free Press do not have the same owners and they aren't biased toward the auto companies. They are, understandably, much more familiar with goings on in the domestic auto industry than other general, non-industry newspapers.

That t-shirt would more accurately reflect its wearers if it read "I hate Ford"

please I lived in Detroit....they are totally biased......give me a break. You are just like those morons who will try to justify the war in Iraq by any means....

"excluding Detroit, where Knight Ridder owns the Detroit Free Press and Gannett owns The Detroit News in a joint operating agreement" (from the Knight Ridder website)

pardon me, same difference

I love this quote:

And while you've got 'em on the phone, ask them what Ford is so afraid of. The AFA's boycott of Disney was called off after nine years because it wasn't working. When the AFA threatened Kraft, the execs at Kraft told the haters from the AFA to go f*ck themselves. But what did Ford do when the AFA threatened them? The "Built Ford Tough" boys collapsed into a puddle. 'Ford Puff' needs to hear from people who won't buy cars from companies that cave in to right-wing hatemongers."

Knight Ridder's website obviously hasn't been updated in a while.

Gannett owns the Detroit Free Press and MediaNews Group owns the Detroit News. The Joint Operating Agreement pertains only to printing and distribution facilities. Each paper's editorial policy and newsroom are independent of the other.

I stand corrected....interesting changes...

The Detroit News will become a morning publication.

-- The Free Press and The Detroit News each will publish a
separate Saturday edition.

-- The Detroit Free Press will become sole publisher of the
Sunday newspaper. Currently, the Saturday and Sunday editions
are a joint publication of the News and the Free Press.

Under Pressure From KKK, Ford Pulls Ads From Black Media

Posted: 12/14/05 at 1:21pm

From the Public Relations Site: The Holmes Report:

http://www.holmesreport.com/holmestemp/story.cfm?edit_id=5051&typeid=2

Under Pressure From KKK, Ford Pulls Ads From Black Media

"Okay, so that’s not quite the story, although the KKK should probably give it a try, because if Ford’s craven response to pressure from the American Family Association is any indication, the company would buckle under at the first sign of trouble."

"Just as important, Ford needs to understand that companies have an obligation to society that goes beyond the need to appease a vocal minority.

Forty years ago, at the height of the civil rights struggle, the KKK had about the same economic influence, popular support and moral authority the American Family Association enjoys today. It’s hard to imagine that Ford then would have negotiated with the Klan, far less given it an excuse to claim victory. The company’s surrender to the AFA tells you all you need to know about the quality of leadership at Ford today."

Looks like all our calls and emails--and the advocacy or our natiuonl groups--worked. The bigots were defeated, and the ads will run. Details on the new, celebratory thread below.
