Ads are meant to get a reaction, stick in your head, and ultimately cause you to purchase something.   But why did this advertising firm for Verizon decide it was necessary to further stereotype Pitbulls?  

 Both HSUS and ASPCA have made formal statements condemning the aggressive portrayal of two pits and contacted Verizon's top brass; but when you are trying to create a reaction "bad press" is better than no press right??  Verizon had initially decided to keep this advertisement on, but after dozens of postings, stories and emails condeming the ad popped allover the net - their better judgment finally rang through...

One could argue that training your dog to bite on command like this Bud Light commercial is just as bad; so why didn't it cause such a reaction from Animal Welfare?
