		<description><![CDATA[Multiculturalism is destroying American society, it is the exact opposite of what we need.  What we need is unity, not diversity.  As with many liberal Utopian ideas and programs, they are the opposite of what is needed or what is right. Worst thing is, even once liberals realize they are wrong, they don&#8217;t admit it, [...]]]></description>

		<itunes:summary>I&#8217;ve adopted several animals and rescued house rabbits and even volunteered at a wildlife shelter, so I know a good cause when I see one.  Promoting shelter pet adoption via the Ad Council&#8217;s &#8220;Shelter Pet Adoption Campaign&#8221; is a worthy cause. It&#8217;s a shame the feminists at the Ad Council let their bias against men get in the way of their message.
This is not the first time, if there is on thread that runs through this organization&#8217;s ads it&#8217;s an effort, sometimes subtle, often overt, to disparage men and boys and cast women as superior, physically, mentally and even emotionally.

The Ad Council is known for creating the ads we see on T.V. or hear on the radio known as Public Service Announcements, (PSA&#8217;s) that stations run perhaps for free or at a reduced rate, usually to support some social cause that usually would not have the money for an ad campaign on the scale arranged for by the Ad Council.  They usually have some ad agency do the creative work based upon their direction or guidance.  I&#8217;m not sure exactly how much public funds, if any, are involved, either directly or indirectly.
I have repeatedly contacted the Ad Council but get no reply concerning this issue.
One of the more outrageous campaigns created under the Ad Council was for something called &#8220;The Family Violence Protection Fund&#8221;.  However, this time the cause was not so worthy, the campaign and the Fund provided misleading or even false information and was so biased and twisted it came close to promoting child abuse.
This campaign depicted pre-teen boys as &#8220;abusers in waiting&#8221; that needed correction or instruction to prevent them from becoming abusers of women which would be only natural in the minds of the feminists at the Ad Council.
Read the article here: Pre-teen boys being neutered by radical feminist organization: Family Violence Prevention Fund (endabuse.org)
Now the Ad Council takes aim at &#8220;man&#8217;s best friend&#8221; and the iconic and historic relationship and image of loyalty and friendship: a boy and his dog.  This immortal and almost genetic bond, between a boy and his loyal companion, his dog is so basic and strong, particularly for males of any age, it spawned an historic series of wholesome television shows in the 1950&#8242;s.
It&#8217;s a shame that the Ad Council chose not to leverage the good will and effectiveness that the relationship between a boy and his dog would bring.  Rather, they chose to drive a wedge between them and disparage men and boys and even make the dog seem stupid in the process.
Shame on you Ad Council, why do you have to make people, mainly men appear stupid and incompetent?
Judge for yourself, the PSA&#8217;s are both on the radio and T.V.  Radio seems to be more pervasive, perhaps only because I don&#8217;t watch too much T.V. anymore.
Below (at the very bottom) is one of the radio spots in an mp3 player for you to hear.
The T.V. Spots aren&#8217;t much better, in the sample below, they depict a white male as a criminal, an evil &#8220;investment adviser accused of committing one of the largest investment frauds&#8230;&#8221;  crimes complete with smirk on his face being handcuffed and shoved in a police car by a female cop.  The dog is cute, but all the cuteness in the world can&#8217;t overcome the message: &#8220;men: bad, stupid, criminal, evil&#8221;.
Is that really needed?  What does investment fraud have to do with pet adoption?
Why can&#8217;t the Ad Council produce ads in a more neutral manner that don&#8217;t have a secondary message that gets in the way of the cause they are supposed to be promoting?
Do they have another agenda?
Why do the constantly have to make men and boys look and act stupid and and evil?

We&#8217;ve all seen them on T.V. or heard them on the radio, if it&#8217;s not klutzy pre-teen boys running around and falling into wells, it&#8217;s older men, with deer in the headlight looks, who can&#8217;t keep up jogging [...]]]></description>
