JC Penney continues to support their decision for hiring Ellen DeGeneres as the spokesperson despite cries from One Million Moms.
One Million Moms, a project of the American Family Association, is arguing that because DeGeneres is gay, JC Penney is not presenting the image of a family-friendly store.
Yahoo! received an email from JC Penney stating they were supporting DeGeneres and One Million Moms is urging people to call up and complain.
The One Million Moms claim that JC Penney should, “replace Ellen DeGeneres as their new spokesperson immediately and remain neutral in the culture war.”
The Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Discrimination supports JC Penney’s decision.
What do you think? By supporting Ellen, an openly gay woman, is JC Penneytaking sides in the “culture war”? Or are they just, you know, supporting a popular comedian?
