    So Fox aired some Burger King ad last week for NFL Sunday that poked fun at Jessica Simpson's weight.
    A rep for Fox tells Usmagazine.com in a statement: "Burger King Corp. 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."
    I don't know if it was a "poor" attempt at humor, but a little distasteful perhaps. But then again, when is taste good in comedy? For the record, I just think those pants make her look really shitty and she isn't actually fat.

    This always baffles me... why are they apologizing?! It's not like they slipped up and did something shitty... they spent $$$ to write, animate, voice-act, edit, schedule and air this thing. A team of people put it together and another team had to approve it... and now... OH sorry.

    sack up, this is comedy and parody, not something that deserves an apology.

    Did they apologize to Wade Phillips?

    I think this is all ridiculous...we are becoming over politically correct. Fuck...what is fair game to make fun of anymore?
