Summary:In preparation for the holiday shopping season, Peloton, a home exercise equipment manufacturer and workout streaming service, created controversy with one of its advertisements in 2019. A number of reactions accused the company of reinforcing sexist stereotypes. The aftermath included a loss of more than $1 billion in market value, social media outcry, and the creation of a number of parodies mocking the Peloton commercial. The company now hopes to rebound from its financial and reputational damage, just before the holiday season.
