CEO calls comic's stunt 'deeply inappropriate'
Thank you Kathy Griffin for the indisputable evidence of your
liberal bigotry and ignorance.
Condemnation of Kathy Griffin has been swift and bipartisan
after images emerged from a photo shoot in which she posed with
a replica of a bloody, severed head of Donald Trump.
Now, Squatty Potty, which employed Griffin for an ad campaign
that broke just a few weeks ago, has discontinued the campaign
and cut ties with the comedian.
“We were shocked and disappointed to learn about the image Ms.
Griffin shared today. It was deeply inappropriate and runs
contrary to the core values our company stands for,” Squatty
Potty CEO Bobby Edwards said in a statement shared with Adweek.
“In response, Squatty Potty has suspended its ad campaign
featuring Ms. Griffin. We have acted swiftly and decisively to
demonstrate our commitment to a culture of decency, civility and
tolerance.”
