Retire Ronald (McDonald)!
Corporate Accountability International, the modern incarnation of Infact and the Nestlé (no relation) boycott, has just launched the Retire Ronald campaign as part of its Value [the] Meal initiative.
The campaign is based on a new report, Clowning With Kids’ Health. The report makes it clear that Ronald is ubiquitous anyplace where children might be – on the Internet, and in schools, kids’ libraries, and kids’ hospitals.
If you, like others, think it’s time to see Ronald retired and out of the marketing-to-kids business, join the campaign and sign Ronald’s retirement card.
