Advertisers for ABC/Disney’s “Scoundrels”

By: American Decency Staff

Sample Letter: As you advertise on the new ABC show Scoundrels, you foster themes that damage our culture at large, and ultimately my family and yours.  Besides the twisted views of right and wrong glorified by this show, the episode which your company sponsored included an explicit sexual scene between a high school student and a teacher.  Sex between adults and minors is something to be condemned – not promoted as enticing.  Is this what you wish to associate your product with? Please remember that as your advertising dollars support the debased ideas portrayed on these shows, you are damaging the families who have supported your company.  As you advertise, I ask you to use your corporate influence in ways that build up, not tear down, our society.    I look forward to your response.
