Tell Hardee's and Carl's Jr. you've had enough!

Tell Hardee’s and Carl’s Jr. you’ve had enough!

Company shows utter disrespect for women and children

March 2, 2012

Do you remember the sleazy Hardee’s and Carl’s Jr. TV commercials featuring Paris Hilton, Hugh Hefner, and the model on the mechanical bull a few years ago? CKE Restaurant chairman Andrew Puzder actually defended the ads and casually dismissed complaints from tens of thousands of customers.

Well, Puzder’s at it again. This time he has Hardee’s and Carl’s Jr. airing their new Pattymelt TV ad, complete with even more sordid titillation. It’s their most offensive and sexually provocative commercial ever. Click here to see this ad (Warning: This ad is offensive and provided only for the purpose of educating our members).

Would you believe this ad actually runs during the children’s television program “Dora the Explorer”?

If you’re like me, you’re sick and tired of the disrepect Hardee’s and Carl Jr.’s executives repeatedly demonstrate toward families.

I personally think we can make a difference.

Have you had enough of Hardee’s and Carl’s Jr. disrespectful attitude toward decent men, women, and children? If so…
