On Friday's Rebel Roundup — did you have the misfortune of checking out the latest marketing campaign for luxury retailer Balenciaga? It was, in a word, grotesque. Inexplicably, the campaign made use of images of child pornography, pedophilia and satanism. And yet, hey, where is the cancel culture mob when you really need ‘em? Our Seattle-based correspondent Katie Daviscourt tried to make sense of it all.

"This marketing campaign put child pornography and pedophilia right before your eyes. And their main spokesmodel is none other than Kim Kardashian, who has four children of her own," Katie commented. "People are saying that she is choosing money over morals. You have to wonder how much money these celebrities are getting paid by Balenciaga... it is a shame how they are able to get away with this."
