The one you are currently sponsoring is perhaps the very worst program ever aired on network television. CBS' “Swingtownâ€Â is a show where the entire premise is bent on legitimizing ‘open marriage’ and group sex. The message propagated over and over is that ‘everyone’ has an open marriage – it isn’t adultery – it will improve one’s marriage. I can't imagine a corporate decision maker discovering the perversion that this show presents continuing to advertise on this damaging, disgraceful CBS program. Sincerely, Advertiser list includes: Quiznos, and Comcast, Menards….
