Twinkies’ GI Joe giveaway sparks furor
2004-07-01
The Minnesota Twins’ latest giveaway idea is drawing criticism from anti-war groups. The Twins plan to distribute a GI Joe action figure at Monday night’s game against the Kansas City Royals . The first 5,000 children at the game will get a nearly four-inch high action figure called Duke. The Twins say the promotion is a way to honor local military personnel. But groups such as Veterans for Peace , Friends for a Non-Violent World and Women Against Military Madness object to the giveaway and are asking the Twins to cancel it.
This rates about a 7.2 on my Whine-o-meter™.
