use to be the greatest country


I guess they were insensative

quote:

Why would that tweet be so destructive? Well, as Twitchy reported, the #WhyIStayed hashtag was sparked by the surfacing of a beyond disturbing video of Ray Rice abusing his then-fiancee (now wife) Janay Rice. Why did she stay with an abuser? Brave women tried to explain by telling their own heartbreaking stories on Twitter Monday under the hashtags #WhyIStayed and #WhyILeft.

So, you see, DiGiorno’s tweet was outrageous and people had reason to be enraged.

I'm not gonna get outraged about the tweet or outraged about the outrage. Everything is gonna be okay.

they tweeted what they thought was a clever tweet(not knowing the hashtag was already in use) to sell their pizza, but they steered into a group of domestic abuse victims, and now all hell breaks lose because they weren't sensitive. Just more pussification

People are pathetic. Was it stupid? Yes. Is it a big deal? Freaking no.

Just the headline of the article is everything wrong with the media

DiGiorno Pizza enrages with outrageous hashtag tweet


Words like these have no meaning anymore because people are "enraged" and "outraged" about everything


ETA: I'm actually pleasantly surprised by the comments under the article. Lots of people criticizing the people for getting worked up over nothing...maybe there is hope.

If you ignore the self-righteous thought police SJW's, they lose their power.

Actually people should look at the link. Pretty interesting story about a screw up and what to do when it happens.

That Derek Rumpler guy needs a life.

Whoever runs their twitter account should do a little more research in to which hashtags are trending before jumping in with a commercial.

Pizza is fattening. A woman would rather catch a left hook than be told she's fat. Ask a woman would she accept 10 lbs in her caboose if it was accompanied by a 10 pt IQ gain. The answers will surprise you.

Oh, no big deal then.

If they had done it on purpose, I'd call them morons

why I stayed


Ray Ray must've cut a sweet under the table deal with her to stick around. It bought his freedom afterall. Had she not stuck by him, he might have a serious problem on his hand.

In a sane world their explanation and apology would have ended the issue.
Who knows what DiGiorno's will have to sacrifice in order to not be shamed out of business.

I hate people sometimes
