Like the whole Jamaican accent ad thing, Joe Flacco saying retard, and Taco bell anti-vegetable ad for example. I doubt any actual Jamaicans, mentally challenged, or vegetarians took offense. Sometimes they take whatever one or two fools on twitter said and think that whole group actually feels that way. They're writing these articles to cause controversy.

Actually there was some article that said that Jamaicans found the ad funny. We are turning into a PC nation gone berserk.

No, I haven't. I've kind of noticed people who are "offended" by such ads usually don't belong to the group that supposedly would take offence. This is a somewhat less violent version of "if it bleeds, it leads" (meaning "if a story is negative - even if we have to make it that way - we, the media, will make it into an issue").
