The Center for Consumer Freedom gives NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg a dressing up -- and a dressing-down -- for his proposed ban on large sugary drinks.
The organization ran a full-page ad in the New York Times featuring the mayor photoshopped in drag with the tagline, "New Yorkers Need a Mayor, Not a Nanny."
Besides decking out His Honor in a dress your tasteful grandma wouldn't be caught dead in, the ad presents a major diss toward Bloomberg's effort to slim down the city by exiling sodas bigger than 16 ounces. Critics have chided Bloomberg for running a "nanny state."
Bloomberg spokesman Marc LaVorgna said in AdWeek: "It says an awful lot about the state of the soda industry that a tobacco company front group is attacking Mike Bloomberg on their behalf. This is the same organization that was founded to oppose bans of smoking in restaurants and bars."
