A robot at a GM factory drops a bolt, then fears getting fired and dreams about committing suicide.
The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention has sent a letter to General Motors (GM) criticizing the ad. The group said the spot may encourage people to consider suicide as a solution to their problems.
"We wouldn't see this ad around cancer or heart disease," says Robert Gebbia, executive director. "Why's it OK to make fun of mental illness or depression?"
GM has no plans to pull the ad.
First Snickers, now GM.
Heh, this is a pretty good one. I wish the people who complained about this stuff would just get hit by a bus...along with the whores who got dodgeball banned.
