United Way v.s. Vegetarian Charities
According to VegSource, the United Way of Los Angeles is taking shots at vegetarian/environmental charities. While their Free the Asparagus campaign video was stupid, it wasn’t really offensive. The group also took out a half-page “Save the Asparagus” ad that said “Each day, they face an enemy more deadly than insects, rodents, or drought: vegetarians.” Again—stupid, uncreative, and poorly targeted… but offensive? I didn’t think so.
