Stop Hardee's Food Systems, Inc from objectifying women in their commercials!

Created by L.S. on February 01, 2014

Hardee's Food Systems, Inc. depict women in their commercials as sexual objects rather than intelligent human beings. The commercials have been criticized heavily by the Parents Television Council namely the 2005 Paris Hilton commercial showing a scantily clad Hilton washing a car in a suggestive manner. According to the Federal Communications Commission, the commercials do not meet legal standards of indecency as defined by Congress. These commercials are completely inappropriate and should not be allowed on public television.
