Fox Apologizes To Jessica Simpson for Fat Cartoon (Video)
Fox and Burger King are apologizing for a cartoon about Jessica Simpson that many people found offensive. The cartoon shows Dallas Cowboys players in the locker room making fun of Simpson's weight.
The below statement is from Burger King.
"Burger King did not have any editorial input in the creation of the animation that ran last Sunday, and no one from Burger King Corp., approved it before it aired. Upon reflection, our poor attempt at humor was insensitive, and we deeply apologize to anyone who might have been offended."
Here's the full commercial of the Jessica Simpson commercial mocking her weight in a faux Fox NFL Sunday cartoon clip with Tony Romo characters and more. (The video starts about 10 seconds in)
