Super Bowl remains a big bash, but ads toned down — except for GoDaddy

By: Chris Johnson

Looking ahead.

*** Through the efforts of ADA and other ministries, we have contacted companies that have used sexual advertisements during the Super Bowl. Last year the advertisements were toned down. Reports are that ads again this year will be toned down – except for GoDaddy.
We urge you to express you concerns regarding GoDaddy and make sure that if you have any affiliation with them – including website hosting that you withdraw your business. See their contact information below.

“… The Go Daddy Group Inc., which registers Internet domain names, is unapologetic about splurging on the Super Bowl. This is the same company that unabashedly threw a $2 million holiday party last month — flying in thousands of employees and guests to Arizona — as other firms cut back. CEO Bob Parsons rode a motorcycle into a concert that featured Joan Jett and Sinbad at Phoenix’s Chase Field.

GoDaddy is elated that NBC has approved two somewhat racy ads for the Super Bowl, one of which will air after a consumer vote. Censors disapproved its ad for last year’s Super Bowl, so GoDaddy aired a spot telling viewers to go to its Web site to watch the commercial. Scottsdale, Ariz.-based GoDaddy got 1.5 million Web hits before the game ended.
