'Marketing Visionary' to Protest Outside Carl's Jr. Corporate Offices for Their 'Soft Porn' Commercials

"Marketing Visionary" to Protest Outside Carl's Jr. Corporate Offices for Their "Soft Porn" Commercials

We only report the facts here, folks, so there's this: a self-described "marketing visionary" from Orange County named Basia Christ is urging people to make the drive up to Carl's Jr.'s corporate offices in Carpinteria this Friday to protest urge a boycott of Happy Stars and all the other things the chain offers.

"Help me send a message to this company that women should not be 'used' like this to sell their hamburgers and ask them to pull this commercial," Christ wrote in a press release.

Who is Christ? Beats me--and that's why I'm going to hell (ba-dum-dum, emphasis on the dumb!). No, Christ is a self-published author whose LinkedIn you can view.

As for the commercial? You know what you have to do--after the jump!

Anyone interested in fighting such horrors can contact Christ at basia.christ@marketive.com. Us? We'll stick to Brazzers...

For a moment I thought this would going to be about Orly Taint, er I mean Taitz. Thankfully it's not. :)

Definitely, False advertising, My bet is their product looks nothing like the picture, just like all their other products, now of course if they had "workers posing like that" in their stores, I don't think anybody would really care what the patty melt look liked, they could always sell it for way more and their employees would make a shit load of tips. May solve their problems after all!Now what is that Brazzers you OC Weekly people are sticking too, the next best restaurant in the OC? I tried Yelping it could not find it!http://www.yelp.com/search?fin...

Please clue us in .... post the link Gustavo :)

Michael... You look like a nice family man... DO NOT GOOGLE BRAZZERS.. Or if you do at least clear your history so the wife doesnt see!

DanGarion

Family man or not, every man needs a little Brazzers or the equivalent every now and then.

Kate Upton is the most gorgeous woman in the world right now. That commercial alone makes me want to ride the Hand Shuttle every time I see it it on TV.
