Dear Jane,
This one is so clever it has people who hate formula sharing it! It made
me so angry that I wrote a blog about it if anyone is interested. It
links to other blogs that analysis the commercial.
http://bfcaa.com/blog/ The blog is "Breaking news: Formula companies
want you money." Basically, the commercial says if you promote
breastfeeding you are being mean to those who are formula feeding. It is
trying to say formula and Bf are equal and the silence the voices who
promote breastfeeding. My opinion. It is slick and beautifully produced.
This type of advertising is a huge problem.
