People only complain about political correctness when it conflicts with their values.

Is Whoopi too stupid to understand that products and marketing are two different things, or is it a case of selective ignorance?

Both seem highly plausible.

I think you nailed it with "Both".

However, as a thought exercise, I'd love to see if sales would be negatively affected by . . . let's say Smith and Wesson . . . if the gender pretender was contracted to pitch or was associated with a particular firearm.

And if outrage would occur . . . by what group(s)?
