have not seen said commercial, but I'm shocked that BK managed to go through all the typical planning and development of such an ad campaign without somebody having a stroke and saying "are we sure we want to do this?" Of course, this is in a time when Abercrombie & Fitch have decided it's funny to sell T-shirts accusing west virginians of incest. Howard Stern attacked Michael Powell, our FCC chairmen..the dude who's job it is to be outraged by ads that make light of cock-fighting.. and suggested his famous daddy goit him his job. Powell's response was the equivilent of yelling "did NOT!" across a playground. Not that I think Howard stern is a hero ( he ain't) but he might have a point. Are these ads national or regional? (I'm in LA)
