(37,648 posts)The whole point of my post is to point out that it doesn't matter WHAT the substance of the ad is. As long as teh POINT of the ad is anti-MSNBC, it won't be aired on that network.
No network is going to air an ad AGAINST ITSELF, regardless of the other substance in the ad. It's not gonna happen. Ever. Duh. Cnn won't do it, Fox won't do it, CBS won't do it, NBC won't do it, ABC won't do it, Comedy Central won't do it, Current won't do it, etc.
I'm not defending the gay-hater guy. He has nothing to do with WHY the network rejected the ad. It's because the ad is against the network. Would you wear a sign on your back that says you're a a-hole, if someone gave you $10 to do it, and everyone knew the sign wasn't a joke?
That's all I'm pointing out And whoever tried to place that ad knew that it would be rejected. Because that's a no brainer.
