Field's theme for the holidays was not received warmly by all

BECKY YERAK
Published March 15, 2005

Move over Tinky Winky and SpongeBob SquarePants.

When Marshall Field's employed a Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs theme for its 2004 holiday festivities, the Chicago-born retailer received some complaints that it was promoting the homosexual lifestyle, an executive said recently.

The concerned citizens divined that there was a "hidden gay agenda" in Field's theme "because seven men were living together," Gregory Clark, vice president of creative services for Field's in Minneapolis, recounted last month at a Retail Advertising & Marketing Association conference in Chicago.

A few years back, Rev. Jerry Falwell went after purse-toting Teletubby Tinky Winky. More recently, conservatives accused cartoon character SpongeBob SquarePants of promoting a homosexual agenda.

When Field's receives such complaints, the department store chain listens to them, Clark said. But unless it receives, say, 10,000 letters and phone calls, it doesn't change its strategy, he said.

The brouhaha over the seven dwarfs didn't bedevil Field's financial results.

The chain finished the year with a 3 percent rise in same-store sales.

It's so funny the lefties fall for this.

It's a joke. I'm sure the organization exists, but it's still a joke.

Anyone ever watch Headlines with Jay Leno. Sometimes you'll see outrageous things in the classifieds. But because it's in an actual paper, they put it on the tv show. maybe they think they are serious. But it seems obvious to me, guys just put those entries into the classifieds as a joke.

Yes there are some depraved people who would spend their own money for a laugh.

Yes I know. I'm the world's biggest skeptic. I rarely believe anything I see on the internet.

If it's anything like the NY Times, then yes.

But as I was saying, this could still be a joke organization. A bunch of guys getting together to protest the stupidest things imaginable to get attention.

You'd be surprised what depraved nerds would do for attention.

I'd assume that this was a joke, except that anything Disney is a natural target for the fundies because of the gay days in Disneyworld. (Does Disneyland also have gay days? I wouldn't know -- why go to Disneyland when Magic Mountain is in the same general vicinity?)

These people clearly have little knowledge of dwarves. Even the females grow facial hair and look like males.

Its obvious Dopey was working his tricksie skills on Snow White, hes a true player.

Rammstein, a German metal band, already shall we say visited this theme with thier video for their song Sonne. Here is there version of Snow White spanking one of the dwarves.

If you can find the video and download, it's a very, umm, different take on Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.

OK - I don't find this one offensive and somebody blanked it on me, so go to the link. Now it came back up. While I was waiting, here is a legit link to the entire video. It's in the middle of the page.
