Recommended Posts

Posted

Uber has announced that it will be changing its controversial Super Bowl commercial starring “Horrible Bosses” thespian Jennifer Aniston before it airs during the game after backlash over its portrayal of food allergies.

 

The Food Allergy Research and Education nonprofit — which released a statement criticizing the ad earlier in the week — shared a follow-up statement from its CEO on Feb. 9, which explained that Uber had reached out to the organization and will edit out the depiction of peanut allergies in the final version of the ad.

I will be honest, there was nothing harmful about that ad. Like the Are there peanuts in peanut butter? joke is so harmless that I believe they shouldn't have to change it.

How is it harmful? It’s informative and teaching that peanut butter has peanuts in it

Pathetic. The Emmy winning actress who performed LIVE every single week for ten years is unbothered af. She has more award worthy screen time than any of her peers. Try to name somebody who has accomplished what she has. You can’t.

She’s got the PANNED touch
