Re: “Coke Pulls ‘Mafia’ Film From Theaters,” Dec. 6: Oh, so the Coca-Cola Co. has admitted to offending Italian Americans by running a short film (read “advertisement”) showing Mafia toughs intimidating patrons and will no longer screen the film. Take the next logical step, Coke, and admit insulting all American moviegoers with your inane, annoying, interminable commercials that buzz around the brain like a pre-waking nightmare you can’t shake. Pull them all.
