But not the first time the UN has been this stupid:
The choice of Wonder Woman was not the first time a fictional honorary ambassador was chosen to represent the UN. Previously, Winnie the Pooh was an ambassador for International Day of Friendship, and a character from Angry Birds was chosen for International Day of Happiness, according to NPR. Tinker Bell was made “honorary ambassador of green” in 2009.
Although now Wonder Woman is bi/gay (as well as white, young, busty, good looking, and wrapped in the American flag) there is at least a small chance of reaching beyond corporate glam:
