lzfan715 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Are you kidding me? I'm sorry but that is sad. I'm all for them being used in commercials to get people to listen but JCPenneys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotplant Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 UGHHHHHH Hmmm..well, now I need to know if JCP uses sweat shops, cause if they do, NOT good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allthekingshorses Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Watching the Acadamy Awards, and "Killing the Blues" was just used in a JCPenney's commercial! That is.... different. I missed it. Killing the Blues.... hmmm.... must be for the new spring line @ Penny's? Or can you get those really cute boots that Alison wears at Penny's now? Oh well, could be worse... it could have been Walmart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as sad as you think.......I believe this is linked to charity ("JC Penney Afterschool Fund'). For every download of the track used in the commercial some percentage goes to charity.

maven2blue Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 It could be worse. At least none of the Republican presidential candidates are using it for their campaign. If that happened, I would become a Led Zeppelin fan only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angel With A Broken Wing Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I just saw 2 different ads shown during a 30 minute sit-com on CBS. They were very nice, tastefully done....introducing "a new American Living line for family & home". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBloodyXXX Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Yeah I was watching the Oscars too and when it came on I hate to tell my sis to shutup and put the volume up, lol. I was surprised to hear it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melanie_72 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 (edited) I saw the link to the commercial in another thread about this. Edited February 26, 2008 by Melanie_72 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotplant Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Now I heard that JCP has a lousy record when dealing with sweatshops. Iraq and Jordan are two of the countries where they have factories that are no good. * I'll post the link when I find it again.* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
