Here we go again!
Last year a Gay dating service ad got banned, by design.
This year it’s the same kind of busness, with a twist. These companies don’t mind being mind because it still gets them free publicity at a much cheaper price.
The Blaze reports that the Super Bowl is known for its funny, smart, and even racy commercials. But there‘s one steamy spot viewers won’t be seeing next month: a “discreet” dating service’s lingerie-clad add encouraging partners to cheat.
The commercial is for AshleyMadison.com, which calls itself “the world’s premiere discreet dating service.” Translation: it’s a dating service for married people. “Life is short. Have an affair,” the site says. It even offers a an “affair guarantee.”
In order to raise its profile, the company produced a 30-second commercial for next month’s Super Bowl. But Fox, which will air this year’s game, banned it. SportsGrid describes the ad:
The ad features adult film star Savanna Sampson, who walks into a corporate boardroom and announces that her executive husband has been cheating on her. Cue a montage of everybody hooking up with everybody (yes, there’s even dude-on-mascot smooching). The ad ends with her in a bra, and the tag line “Isn’t it time for AshleyMadison.com?”
