Fuck Embassy Suites Hotels

[brettdale]

They will no longer advertise on letterman, to show support for Palin's daughter's.

Anyone have a contact address for these hotels.

3. It's funny really.

I saw where they were withdrawing their advertising. But they are also filing for bankrupcy so it's
probably necessitated by the fact that they can't even pay for any advertising in the first place.


:rofl: :rofl:

7. Wrong.

Embassy Suites is a Hilton property and Hilton is not filing for Bankruptcy.

Extended Stay America Hotels have filed for bankruptcy protection. Two completely different companies.

5. I just stayed in one, too

(someone else was paying for it, and a conference was being held there)

The computers in their vaunted "business center" (both of them :P ) blocked Facebook -- but not DU! :shrug:

6. Do they have PPV porn in the rooms?

Not that I object to porn, but they may have some shakey ground when it comes to fambly valyoos

Original message

Embassy Suites knuckles under to Palin
and has pulled their ads from all CBS.com websites.

Please contact them and let them know they've lost you as a customer for cow-towing to right wing extremists.

John Lee, VP Brand Marketing and Communications, [e-mail]

Dawn Ray, Public Relations, 901-374-5954, [e-mail]

And for all the people who don't think this is important, now they are going after Letterman, next it will be Jon Stewart, then Keith and Rachel. Don't let them silence the few progressive voices left in the media.

Please pass this on to as many friends and forums as possible.

More info..

"David Letterman's comments about Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and one of her daughters has prompted a hotel chain to pull its advertising on CBS' website — and spawned a campaign to fire the Late Show host that includes a planned protest outside his studio.

Embassy Suites, part of the Hilton Hotels Corp., pulled advertising on CBS' site because of complaints, company spokeswoman Kendra Walker told TVGuide.com. The company was not an advertiser on Letterman's show.

"We received lots of e-mails from concerned guests and we assessed that the statement that he made was offensive enough to our guests and prospective guests that we elected to take the ads down," Walker said. She declined to release the cost of the ads."
