One Million Moms: Kohl's Needs to Stop Advertising on that 'Wicked Show'
Bobby McGuire READ TIME: 2 MIN.
Why can't they just turn the channel?
If at first you don't succeed,: bitch, bitch again.
This is the apparent watch cry of the self appointed harridans of media morality - One Million Moms (OMM). The target in OMM's sites - ABC's late primetime serial drama "How to Get Away with Murder."
After launching a campaign in November to pressure one of the show's sponsors, Kay Jewelers, to pull their ads from the highly rated show, OMM is now "expecting great things" from big box retailer Kohl's.
Their beef with the show? You guessed it! The love that dare not type its name, "homos-xual s-x."
In an email to their supporters, OMM is urging crones everywhere to contact Kohl's.
ABC's creepy program "How To Get Away With Murder" did not end with the finale since it is now airing the season all over again. New episodes will begin on January 29 and in the meantime the network plans to air reruns - unless 1MM can intervene.
This show is about more than murder and violence. There is a whole slew of sins in this series that the network calls entertainment. This program has included assault and murder on several occasions, as well as graphic heteros-xual and homos-xual s-x scenes on a p-rn-graphic level, foul language, mockery of Jesus Christ and Christians, s-x with a minor (statutory r-pe), adultery and marital affairs. (A dash is used to ensure our emails get through to those who have signed up to receive our alerts. Otherwise, referencing specific words would cause our emails to be blocked by some Internet filters.)
This series pushes casual s-x as acceptable, even when with multiple partners or encounters in public places. This wicked show has many dark images including a rotting corpse, dead bodies and other gore. Even though the program airs on Thursday evenings at 10:00 p.m. ET/9:00 p.m. CT, it is not late enough for the violent, twisted plot and s-nsual scenes that are completely soft p-rn. Occasionally, like on this past Thanksgiving Day, it airs earlier at 9:00 p.m. ET/8:00 p.m. CT and then again at its regular time slot.
"How to Get Away with Murder" is part of ABC's all-night block of Shonda Rhimes-produced dramas on Thursdays, a rarity in American television. It is the network's third highest rated primetime program. According to TV By The Numbers, it is certain to be renewed.
Kohl's 3-Day Christmas Bonus Buys sale ends today.
