Jewish?

[edit]

Is Andy Puzder Jewish? I recently read a news article about how neo-Nazis and the alt-right (who supported Donald Trump during the campaign) are souring on him now. The article mentioned the nomination of Puzder (alongside that of Gary Cohn) as one of the reasons why. It seemed like the article was implying he was Jewish, but the author didn't say so outright.

Suggest moving bikini marketing section to Carl's Jr.

[edit]

I think it's a stretch to include the section titled "Controversial marketing campaign" in this article. It refers to marketing undertaken by Carl's Jr., a subsidiary of CKE Restaurants, during Puzder's tenure at that company. The Salt Lake City Tribune article which mentions two Utah women protesting the ads does not mention Puzder. The New York Times article includes one paragraph on the matter: "And on the political incorrectness front, Mr. Puzder’s company, CKE Restaurants, runs advertisements that frequently feature women wearing next to nothing while gesturing suggestively. 'I like our ads,' he told the publication Entrepreneur. 'I like beautiful women eating burgers in bikinis. I think it’s very American.'" Then we have the Entrepreneur article itself. Content about this marketing campaign is not currently included in the CKE or Carl's Jr. article. Those places would seem to make more sense, as it doesn't appear that Puzder devised the ads (the articles say the Director of Marketing did so), or that the ads were a primary or particularly noteworthy aspect of his tenure as head of CKE. I'm not seeing how the fact that Carl's Jr. ran ads with bikini models that some people liked and some people didn't while Puzder was head of CKE Restaurants is an encyclopedically notable part of his biography.

205.251.68.92 (talk)ok, I only put it there because there was a direct quote from Puzder about the ads...I was showing Puzder's opinion on the ads, which I thought was relevant. —Preceding undated comment added 19:03, 28 January 2017 (UTC)

For some reason, another editor deleted the link I posted to the ex-wife's appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show. Here is the link: http://www.politico.com/video/2017/02/170214-lisa-fierstein-oprah-062244 Armada1000 (talk) 19:00, 15 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

In that intro paragraph, change the “anti-abortion” phrase to “pro-life”.

[edit]

The term “pro-life” has always been more accurate to describe the movement against abortion. 2600:1700:D700:27B0:71E2:994:C0C0:A0C4 (talk) 18:24, 11 April 2025 (UTC)Reply

It is not accurate. "Pro-life" is a euphemism, which we should not use. Please read MOS:EUPHEMISM.  Muboshgu (talk) 20:56, 11 April 2025 (UTC)Reply
