M&M's clap back at Tucker Carlson in Super Bowl commercials

Maybe someone posted this yesterday and I missed it?





What’s even funnier, is that tons of people, including some DU’ers, actually believed that the Mars Company had “caved” to Carlson’s whining outburst, and that Rudolph was complicit…folks were organizing liberal boycotts of M&M’s…

Well played, Mars co.

Mars had caved to Tucker, but I guess these days satire is a tough business.

However, caving to right wing bullshit happens quite often, so there's that.

They got pounded for caving to the MAGAts, real or not, just so they could set up this bit? How many people even have a clue what all that was about?

What a stupid campaign.

…is how many days it took them to shoot that spot. The premise that M&Ms was going to release a candy filled with clams is so over-the-top, you just know the cast busted out laughing WAY too many times.
