Not just Tucker. Fox is all over this like a duck on a June bug.
Figures. Never let an opportunity to crow about moral superiority go to waste.

You sure about that? The company merely changed its marketing tactics. Seems like it's the right winger who are doing all the complaining and overreacting.

It started when the liberals in the Mars' marketing dept., or whoever it was that made this decision, became offended by the bully M&M and the sexy M&M.
So you're saying people shouldn't be offended by bullies?

Good to know.
They certainly should not be offended by a surly anthropomorphized piece of candy

Again, the only people offended seem to be those who object to this change in marketing by the company. M&M/Mars doesn't think it's a good idea to portray a cartoon character as a bully. Apparently you and others on this discussion don't agree with the company. Says more about you than it does about the company.
Honestly.....this is the most ridiculous thing I've read in a long time.
Okay, first off let me just say that I believe that I am generally a fairly sane individual. I mean sure, I know we all have our little quirks which make us unique (slightly crazy) but for the most part my marbles remain in a nice neat pile in my head. And for some reason, just reading this story makes me feel as if I'm listening to someone drag nails across a chalkboard.
How on earth did we, as a society, get to this point? Have we truly reached a point in our lives where stuff like this is worthy of our attention? Does this not strike the rest of you as utter insanity on the part of Mars, Incorporated? And if it does seem as insane to you as it does to me, then you must also realize this insane response to a non-existent problem was brought on by a group of even more insane people who actually had a problem with cartoon candy people!!!!!
What the hell is going on!!!! How can we ever fix any of our very real problems in this country when people are focusing their attention on ridiculous issues like this? M&M's are candy people. That's all they will ever be. And if you are actually crazy enough to let the shoes a cartoon candy character is wearing bother you, then you should absolutely seek professional help.
PS. I'm sorry for the rant. But I truly can not express just how sick I am of seeing stories like this. We have so many real problems in the world. It just makes me sick to think people are wasting their time on ridiculous issues like these.
I didn’t even notice changes glancing by.
They’re so small; insignificant.
And yet… you decided to make a long ranting post about it.
Issue isn’t the candy.

The amount of butt hurt whining about this just astounds me. The changes are so… nothing. If you didn’t see a side by side you wouldn’t notice the difference.
It’s Mars candy cartoons. They can make them look how ever they want.
I don't expect any of the conservatives to care about the real story here, considering that just days ago one of them thought it was a brilliant idea to start a thread arguing the merits and benefits of child slave labor.

No, it really doesn’t.
