misogynystopDoes the Kelloggs Company support the statutory rape of 14 year-olds, the forcible impregnation of minors, the prostitution of young girls, and the exploitation of women?

This is a question that needs to be asked of the Kellogg’s executive team, since their silence the last few days has been deafening.  

Kelloggs is one of the largest sponsors of the Late Show with David Letterman, a program that jokes about the statutory rape of 14 year-old girls.  On June 9th, 2009, David Letterman told his audience that Sarah Palin’s daughter had been “knocked up” duing a New York Yankees game by 33 year-old Alex “A-Rod” Rodriguez.  Sarah Palin’s daughter, the only child of hers attending that Yankees game in New York, is 14 years-old — making Letterman’s joke about statutory rape, and how funny it is that during a baseball game at the new Yankee Stadium Alex Rodriguez took time during one of the innings to rape Willow Palin, impregnate her, and then get back to his duties on the field.  

The next day, on June 10th, 2009, David Letterman said Willow Palin had become a prostitute, and was now kin to the hookers hired by former Governor Eliot Spitzer. 

This is, of course, in addition to Letterman calling the Governor of America’s largest state “a slutty flight attendant”, accusing her of having a crack habit, denigrating her intelligence, and implying she was a lesbian.  

Just another night of “jokes” on the show Kellogg’s keeps on the air: the David Letterman show. 

Kellogg’s needs to address this matter and clarify its corporate position on the statutory rape of 14 year-old girls and the forcible impregnation of minors. By continuing to send their advertising millions to CBS, Kellogg’s directly keeps the Ed Sullivan theater’s doors open, pays the light bill, and gives David Letterman his platform to exploit women.  

Kellogg’s directly encourages the exploitation and rape of women in this country by helping to pay David Letterman’s salary, in upwards of $30 million a year.  

Please write to Kelloggs and in a professional, polite, and direct one-page letter ask the six people listed below what Kellogg’s position is on statutory rape, David Letterman’s jokes, and the forcible impregnation of minors, as featured on the Late Show with David Letterman. 

Write each one every day until Kelloggs pulls its advertising support of David Letterman.  Write several times a day if you can.  Keep writing until Kelloggs takes responsibility for the monster it keeps on the air by paying his salary and bills.
