JC Penny Gay Dads Ad


JC Penney launched a Fathers' Day advertisement a couple of days ago featuring a gay couple with their children, noting that the ad portrays "real-life dads Todd Koch and Cooper Smith with their children, Claire and Mason". The ad builds on the department store's recent decision to stand with the LGBT community. In February, JC Penney came under fire from the anti-gay group One Million Moms for bringing on the openly-gay comedian Ellen DeGeneres as a spokesperson. The store stood behind its partnership with Ellen. Ana Kasparian and John Iadarola discusses this issue on The Young Turks. Check it out.
