Have you seen the controversy over the Hallmark Channel ad that featured two brides kissing?
They aired this lesbian ad, and some conservative groups complained because they didn't think it was family friendly. So they pulled it. But then they really got in trouble, because the LGBTQ people didn't like that they pulled the ad. So Hallmark is going to reinstate them and have apologized for pulling them.

This is an interesting clash of values. That's the way things are in today's PC world. You have to promote LGBTQ values, or you are labeled a bigot or worse. There was a time not at all long ago that this would not be considered appropriate for something children would be able to view.
