General News Remember the bigoted president of Barilla Pasta and his comments? A change of tune..

So a few weeks ago, the chairman of Barilla Pasta said they'd never depict gay couples because, in effect, "it's wrong." That, in turn, sparked a worldwide boycott that apparently picked up enough steam to make a difference.

Now, suddenly, they're all about diversity, they're creating a diversity council, and are talking about its importance. Interesting how often bigoted views give way to reality when hard dollars are at stake.
