A link quoting some guy on the street who said he THINKS it's because of money. Again, if you prefer to ignore Lowe's official statements on their own ad withdrawal and instead insist it's for another reason based on some guy on the street offering a personal opinion...

The decision hasn't affected that store in Park Allen, MI according to customers there. A store that is in one of the country's largest Arab-American communities.

Plus, you have this to contend with and that TLC wasn't upfront about their show to potential advertisers.

The travel planning site Kayak.com also pulled its ads, though its marketing chief said the decision was made because the company was dissatisfied by the show's quality and TLC wasn't upfront with advertisers about how the show would be presented.

Where's the outrage at Kayak.com?
 
where did this quote come from?

Never mind, found it. So, they said they withdrew because of people's responses to the show and now they're saying they didn't withdraw because of any outside group or ideology.

Hmmm...too late for backpedaling.

Never did. :wave:

don't worry, the protest will spread to others who withdrew. Lowe's was the only sponsor who admitted doing so publicly. Have to give them credit for that.
 
"Lowe's has received a significant amount of communication on this program, from every perspective possible. Individuals and groups have strong political and societal views on this topic, and this program became a lightning rod for many of those views. As a result we did pull our advertising on this program," the company said in a statement Saturday.

"We believe it is best to respectfully defer to communities, individuals and groups to discuss and consider such issues of importance."

You are again failing to properly cite your quotes. Is that because you know if anyone here could access those quotes, they could use your sources to prove how wrong you are? Intellectual dishonesty is what would normally be charged, but in your case the "intellectual" does not apply. It is just dishonest, period. You have already been busted for plagairism once in the last week. Now for quoting without citation. Shame on you.

And you expect anyone to give you credibility for anything? What a joke.
 
Hmmmm....Lowe's did say they withdrew after Florida Family Org called All American Muslim propaganda and an attempt to subvert American values...whatever. They'd rather appease some small org in florida than the much larger Muslim demographic in the US. That says a LOT.


I don't think that is the case. I think they would just rather stay with the American Majority in as patriotic a way as possible. That's good business, financially.

Got any stats that would indicate that the group in Florida is actually representing the view of the American majority?

The protesters just triggered the decision, majority or not that was their intention. What's more important was whether Lowe's believed that was the view. And, obviously, they did.

No, it really doesn't indicate that at all. What it indicates is that Lowe's wanted to shut the vocal minority up.
 
So American Muslims are not patriotic or american?

How's this for patriotic Americans?

FORT LEWIS -- Each Friday, soldiers in battle-dress camouflage here remove their boots, face Mecca and prostrate themselves, heads bowed to the carpet in obedience to Allah.

In the military base's Islamic Chapel Center, they recite their Jumah prayers, following the lead of Capt. James Yee, a West Point graduate and a convert to Islam who is chaplain of Fort Lewis' largest battalion.
