I wonder if those who will applaud Jaguar's decision also applauded Chevrolet for supporting a Christian worship tour in November? Will the Christian groups that loved the Checy deal affirm Jaguar in their marketing plan? Or will the crowd that called for a boycott of Chevy for that effort (Like the American Humanist Association) also seek to boycott Jag for catering to a certain segment of the population who (like the Evangelicals) are loved by some and unloved by others? I suspect that those who loved their own group getting the marketing dollars aren't near as happy when other kinds of groups are targeted and wooed. But if any of these groups are going to stand on priinciple, they should be consistent.
The simple reality is that all the carmakers worship at the same one altar: $$$. I don't think that Jag/Chevy/other is affirming a lifesyle so much as seeking sales.
