One Million Moms Drop Campaign Against Ellen

Advocacy group One Million Moms has dropped their campaign against talk show host and JCPenney spokesperson Ellen DeGeneres.

Apparently, they have bigger fish to fry than getting DeGeneres fired from her gig with the retail clothing giant — all because she’s *gasp* a lesbian.

“[W]e have heard back from so many of our members,” director Monica Cole told One News Now. “We have heard back from men and women — not just moms — saying they will no longer shop there at JC Penney, as long as Ellen DeGeneres is their spokesperson.”

If that’s considered a win in their eyes, kudos, I guess.
