Viewers’ Feedback Forces Will Ferrell to Make Less Funny Ads

Will Ferrell’s commercial for his new one-man Broadway show “You’re Welcome America: A Final Night with George W. Bush” has been pulled after “viewers were outraged.” The former Saturday Night Live star was running ads to promote his new project in which he says “If you don’t watch this, you’re a giant D-bag. D stands for ‘douche'” as George W. Bush.

Page Six says that ABC responded to the feedback– “the rules are different in the morning,” they mention– and pulled the advertisement. CBS followed suit, so now Will Ferrell’s updated commercials are a little safer for the “douche”-sensitive.
