Online rage forces Johnson&Johnson to pull Motrin Ad.

This past week, health-care giant Johnson & Johnson yanked a multimedia ads campaign of its over the counter pain reliever Motrin after a flurry of protests all across the Internet. The ad was geared toward mothers who supposedly get back pain from carrying their babies in slings.

Boy, a not so family company.
