More Companies Pull Ads from Skins

So the new television series Skins, which is just a remake of the British television series, has been getting a lot of controversy since its premier. It has cause so much controversy that the Parents Television as been asking people to boycott this show, and in so doing launched an advertising campaign against it. Now I looked on their site and everywhere else, and cannot seem to find the ad campaign against it. Skins is so scandalous and controversial to most people that many companies are pulling their commercials and sponsorship form the television show. The companies that have pulled their commercial so far are : H&R Block, Subway, Taco Bell, Wrigley, and GM. Mtv has no current plans of toning down the show. I had never watched the series, so to form an opinion, I watched the first episode yesterday, and I must say it was ridiculous. The whole episode was about sex, and trying to get a guys “v card” taken away. It was degrading to women, and to teenagers and young adults. It sheds a bad light on the life of teenagers, and personifies it in a false light. I can see why advertisers have pulled from the show. If your going to make a show about crazy teenagers, at least make it somewhat realistic.
