Personal note:
I had never heard of AshleyMadison.com until yesterday. I sat in disgust
as I viewed the ad online.
This degenerate corporation (AshleyMadison.com) targets troubled marriages
and offers adultery options. NBC and the NFL formerly rejected the ad airing
nationwide but many stations picked it up in Texas.
The ad (in short) featured a married couple "celebrating" their
anniversary in a restaurant. A particular scene in the ad demonstrates that
the husband is an insensitive mess. He shuts off his wife from speaking and
moments later receives a cell phone call. He basically says "oops got
to run" leaving his wife sitting alone bewildered, degraded and longing
to be treasured by her husband but vulnerable - oh so very vulnerable.
The ad target such individuals.
Quoting: PR Newswire:
".. Determined to get his new commercial into the big game, AshleyMadison.com
CEO, Noel Biderman, slipped under the radar and aired his new controversial
ad in Texas of all places! Biderman specifically chose Texas to run his new
female-targeted commercial because (as he so eloquently puts it) 'In Texas,
men love their football and women love to cheat!'
According to Biderman, 'The effects of the current recession are so profound
that many local stations were willing to accept Ashley Madison advertising
dollars even in this post 'wardrobe malfunction' Super Bowl climate.' ...
Despite minimal efforts at advertising in the lone star state previously,
Texas has steadily remained Ashley Madison's fastest growing market with over
200,000 members signed up to their Infidelity Service in just the past two
years. As a result, AshleyMadison.com plans on spending millions in the state
this year.
'In this current economic climate,' adds Biderman, 'Divorce isn't an option
for many women who are stuck in unhappy marriages. We want them to know there's
a service just for them. AshleyMadison.com'
The notorious site currently boasts over 3.2 million members with a new member
signing up every 20 seconds. Ashley Madison went mainstream in 2008 when they
began airing their previous commercial on CNN, ESPN, Fox News and MSNBC. This
new commercial is the first time they've ever been allowed to advertise before
9 pm. ..."
Here are some of the promotional phrases found on Ashley Madison's webpage:
"Life is short have an affair."
"Join AshleyMadison.com for free and have an affair ... Guaranteed!"
"100% Guaranteed - The Ashley Madison Affair Guaranteed"
"Are you married but looking? Ashley Madison is the place for Married
Dating."
Personal note in closing:
Just going on their website makes you feel dirtied. The background picture
is of a man and a woman faded out in the background in a provocative, suggestive
pose.
If you live in Texas and you saw this ad air on your local station, express
indignation that they aired this depraved ad.
Here is the contact information for this despicable site. Direct calls to
this corporation done in a Christlike manner would be most appropriate. Perhaps
you can impact a receptionist for the good.
