I saw this last night watching one of my shows on DVR.
This is my op.
I don't care how you want to sell soup. I don't care if you want to show the changing faces of families.
You are selling soup, if you want to have political causes and or statements campbell's soup expect some issues from some of your customers. If you in the business of promoting whatever social change expect some "family groups".
Will I not Buy Campbells soup now? I will buy whatever soup I want and I don't care for the companies politics. I will buy soup and when I am buying soup I have many options and progresso, lipton etc etc . Maybe they just need to show their soup, you know the thing they are selling. But, what is campbell's selling in this ad?
In order for campbells to sell this soup they needed starwars and 2 gay dads. Interesting the soup is that BAD.
If they were really willing to go all out on this AD. Make the campbells soup CAN rainbow colored darth vader. They can upset starwars fans :-) and family groups at the same time.
How is showing a gay couple in a commercial a political cause or a promotion of social change? When there are straight families on a commercial it isn't political. Some people need to stop being such babies about gay people.

All gay and general "non trad" families are about social change and we have states and constitutional amendments being proposed over "man vs woman" which is just stupid the government needs to be involved in that. Everyone is going to complain though if you are a man and have 5 wives its interesting to see who complains about that.
Maybe campbell's should have did a AD with the guy who has 5 wives and all his children from different women you would still get the same complaints even though its "straight" relationships.
ITS Fing Soup. Stop defining what a family is over soup. If campbells is stupid enough to promote the 2 gay dads I expect some soup sells decline. Which is why when you are a company you should be selling your product, and that product is soup not 2 dads because that is what that is about.

They weren't showing their noodles were they? Egads.....
Everything on TV can be spun as political. Perhaps you should just stopping watching it? Stop listening to music too. Looking at magazines.. reading books. Outlaw everything non-traditional in your mind.
