Title: Offensive 9/11 Commercial Sparks Outrage

A Texas mattress company that was condemned for airing a commercial promoting its ?Twin Tower Sale? will be ?closed indefinitely,? its owner said Friday.

Miracle Mattress promised to ?be silent? through Sunday?s 9/11 anniversary and reiterated its apology to people offended by its commercial that featured a pair of employees toppling two towers of mattresses, according to a statement issued by the company?s owner, Mike Bonanno.

?We take full responsibility for our actions and sincerely regret the hurt and pain caused by this disrespectful advertising campaign,? Bonanno said.

The 20-second commercial shows three employees enthusiastically offering any size mattress for the price of a twin-size one. ?What better way to remember 9/11 than with a Twin Tower sale?? a woman says. Two men then fall over backwards, knocking over two towers of mattresses. ?We?ll never forget,? the woman says.

The ad prompted widespread anger and calls for the business to close permanently.

People will do anything for fame. Now their store is known worldwide. They had to have known that this would be the reaction they'd get.

I don't think the world cares as much.

I remember watching a British show where they made a 9/11 musical number in the show.

Well yea, they might care less. People have a tendency to care less when it aint in their backyards. Paris was bombed and they still joke about that boy running for his life and posting Steve Harvey's wife's photo

My point was, 24 hours ago only locals knew the store existed. Now, news outlets all over the country are picking up the stories. It was a bad idea, but from a marketing standpoint, it has people talking about it which in the long run they could turn around in their favor.

In America, you don't make fun of 9/11, veterans/military, or threaten to increase taxes. It like the unwritten rules.
