M A A D: Muslims Against Advertising

Times Online – Britain

A Muslim group targets poster nudity. That is the news in Britain today.

This story is updated! See below

A poster advertising the Channel 4 programme Desperate Housewives is the most recent target; the images of two scantily-clad actresses have been torn from an East London billboard but three fully-dressed characters were left intact. Adverts bearing Dove�s �Real Women� adverts � six ordinary women pictured in their underwear � were painted over at several locations last year.

On Direct Essays their is a essay from these people? I am not sure.

ELEVEN INHERENT RULES OF CORPORATE BEHAVIOR by Jerry Mander The following list is an attempt to articulate the obligatory rules by which corporations operate. Some of the rules overlap, but taken together they help reveal why corporations behave as they do and how they have come to dominate their environment and the human beings within it. The Profit Imperative: Profit is the ultimate measure of all corporate decisions. It takes precedence over community well-being, worker health, public health, peace, environmental preservation or national security. Corporations will even find ways to trade with national “enemies”�Libya, Iran, the former Soviet Union, Cuba�when public policy abhors it. The profit imperative and the growth imperative are the most fundamental corporate drives; together they represent the corporation’s instinct to “live.” The Growth Imperative: Corporations live or die by whether they can sustain growth. On this depends relationships to investors, to the stock market, to banks and to public perception. The growth imperative also fuels the corporate desire to find and develop scarce resources in obscure parts of the world.

The have a sense of humor I think:

It says on its website that it believes in �direct action� and �has paint and isn�t afraid to use it�, adding: �There is no longer any need to cringe as you walk past a sleazy poster, we�ll improve it.�

And some might find this funny (and others not):
A spokesman said the poster would be �extremely offensive� to a Muslim man if he passed it on his way to prayers.

It is not only against nudity, the oppose also the Playstation America’s 10 most wanted with Bin Laden on the cover
