The American Family Association's (AFA) Floridian chapter is trying to force advertisers to boycott the show Sordid Lives on Viacom's LGBT channel LOGO.
David Caton of the Florida Family Association issued the boycott because the show features "gender bending" and a dysfunctional Republican Baptist Texas family" According to a Florida Family release, the show depicts various members of the family as lesbian, homosexual, bi-sexual, and transgender."
One of the main stars of the show Jason Dottley responds to the allegations and calls for reverse activism:
Jason Dottley is asking us to contact the Florida Family Association over their lies and homophobia.

Pepsi "Something for Everyone" Slogan is Working!
The American Family Association is calling for a boycott of Pepsi due to their support for the "homosexual agenda" and they are asking their constituents to take action by letting Pepsi know they plan on boycotting.
They are angry because Pepsi donated $500,000 to the Human Rights Campaign as well as $500,000 to Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays(PFLAG)
Pepsi has also marched in pride parades and handed out Pepsi products and paraphernalia in an effort to market to the LGBT community.
In addition PepsiCo has workshops to trains its employees in diversity training which includes educating about sexual orientation and gender identity issues.
Please call Pepsi (914-253-2000 or 1-800-433-2652) and let them know you appreciate their commitment to diversity and for supporting gay charities.
Pepsi's products include Pepsi soft drinks, Frito-Lay chips (800-352-4477), Quaker Oats (800-367-6287), Tropicana (800-237-7799) and Gatorade (800-367-6287).

Queer Buycott - Campbell's Soup
The anti-gay hate group, the American Family Association has called for a boycott of Campbell's Soup over their recent ads featuring LGBT people and families.
So, in response we are calling for a buycott and are urging pro-equality consumers to praise the company for showing a commitment to diversity. Your calls, letters, and emails are needed in the face of the thousands who have called the company with disapproving words.
I re-worded the call to action sent by the AFA:
- Send an email to the Campbell Soup Company President Douglas Conant. Tell him you want his company to continue their commitment to diversity and support of LGBT people and families.
- After sending your email, please call Campbell Soup Company (800-257-8443) and their Swanson division (1-800-442-7684) and let the company know you will continue to support them because of their gay and lesbian ads.
- Forward this e-mail to your friends and family so they will know about Campbell's support of equality and LGBT issues.
