Renault has withdrawn an ad over fears that its use of the term "the N-word" could cause offence.
The car manufacturer decided to withdraw the ad after the Advertising Standards Authority received two complaints from members of the public who felt that the term carried racist connotations. Even though the ASA decided not to investigate the ad, which appeared in newspapers, Renault chose to withdraw it. The print ad was to promote a limited period during which Renault dealers promised not to use the word "no" to customers.
Yes, "the N-word" has racist connotations...but who gives a flying ****? I'll tell you who: politically correct wet liberal types who get a fantastic ego trip when showing their superior sense of morality by complaining about something which clearly isn't meant to be racist or offensive in any way. Whoever those two people were who complained about the ad...I pity you.
