Default PETA ad gets rejected

Apparently a PETA spot for the Super Bowl doesn't meet (meat? ) CBS' criteria:

Eating meat causes impotence? :shocked: Wow.
I wonder how many people are gonna fall for that one.

I find it disturbing that these freaks have the kind of money it takes to fund a Super Bowl commercial. [img]graemlins/eek13.gif[/img]

Lange said CBS' policy is inconsistent, because she's seen ads condemning smoking and drunken driving on past Super Bowl telecasts.

You betcha.
I think CBS should run the ad anyway. Take their money and help show the rest of the country how whacked these fruitcakes are.

Way to go, CBS. [img]graemlins/applause.gif[/img]

Do PETA people realize how foolish they look? [img]graemlins/dork.gif[/img]

Good, the article also says that it rejected an anti-Bush add as well.

The article said that CBS often rejects adds that are of a controvertial nature, like abortion and others. But I have seen NARAL adds on their station before.

But good. I think they should avoid running political adds that are like that.
