The retailer broke the silence on the controversy surrounding its "great jeans" ad campaign starring actor Sydney Sweeney.

I honestly didn’t realize they were still a company. All locations I knew of are gone.

They probably orchestrated and paid for entire thing, including the manufactured poutrage from critics.

Did they really make an effort to go against "equity" or did they simply hire a popular celebrity for an ad that the left got pissed about?

Turns out everyone wants to look hot, not look like a black lesbian. Who knew. Watch em bring the real Marlboro man back and see em line up for cigs.

When 98% of your revenue comes from 70% of the population, give em what they want

as hyper sensitive as the companies are, thru knew they would get crap for putting a hot blonde woman in the ad, The uber backlash was a plus. So both are true in this case

Was this a surprise to you? The day after the ad was released their stocks jumped like 4%. Hot girls with big tits are always a good marketing strategy.

I think he is gone. With fewer and fewer establishments selling cigarettes or tobacco products, there may come a time when you have to buy the tobacco from a dealer and roll them yourself.

I think Walmart is getting onboard with the no tobacco sales in Louisiana, I saw that my local Walmart had a dwindling supply of cigarettes.

A few years ago, Walmart phased them out in other states. It is only natural that other stores follow the same path as fewer and fewer people smoke.
