We’ve seen corporations fail miserably at attempts to commemorate holidays, but Pornhub really doesn’t seem to have grasped the full meaning of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech — or the fact that it celebrates his birth, not his death.
Happy MLK. In honor of his death, make sure to only use the Ebony category today.

After some backlash, Pornhub later ‘apologized’ for its tweet and issued a correction.
Apology: MLK would have wanted everyone to watch the Interracial category today. #IHaveADream
