CBS has said it doesn't care to run "advocacy" ads
during the Super Bowl, so they're not accepting ads
from moveon.org ("Guess who's going to pay
off Pres. Bush's deficit?") and People for the Ethical
Treatment of Animals ("Meat can cause impotence"). CBS
says that "advocacy advertisements were out of bounds
on professional football's biggest day" and they also
felt the PETA ad was in poor taste.
