During this year's Super Bowl, you'll see ads sponsored by beer companies, tobacco companies, and the Bush White House. But you won't see the winning ad in MoveOn.org Voter Fund's Bush in 30 Seconds ad contest. CBS refuses to air it.
Meanwhile, the White House and Congressional Republicans are on the verge of signing into law a deal which Senator John McCain (R-AZ) says is custom-tailored for CBS and Fox, allowing the two networks to grow much bigger. CBS lobbied hard for this rule change; MoveOn.org members across the country lobbied against it; and now the MoveOn.org ad has been rejected while the White House ad will be played. It looks an awful lot like CBS is playing politics with the right to free speech.
Of course, this is bigger than just the MoveOn.org Voter Fund. People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) submitted an ad that was also rejected. We need to let CBS know that this practice of arbitrarily turning down ads that may be "controversial" ? especially if they're controversial simply because they take on the President ? just isn't right.

I don't want to start any shit but WTF are you thinking? They should be allowed to the commercials they want. Why is it because they chose not to air something it's suddenly a right winged conspiracy?
I want to watch the game, see Britney dance around in her Pepsi commercial and have a few beers. Maybe in order to be fair you could place ads on your site, for those sponsors that got rejected. Oh and do you have the list of all the ads that were rejected? Were they all rejected because of the conspiracy? Is it possible that maybe some of them just sucked or they felt just didn't fit in with programming.
If you?re such a whore that you will take any money from advertiser?s maybe you should talk to sexed, I'm sure he wouldn't mind buying some ads for his next site on your site? What the hell it's just money as you said.
