This is kind of annoying. I don't think the decisions makers at a few TV stations represent the population of the city, yet they seem to be deciding what they think is best for us. Here's a quote:

Ray Carter, vice president/general manager of local NBC affiliate WPXI, said that while the ad was clever, his station didn't consider it appropriate for this market.

This is irresponsibly, hypocritical and absolute BS. Now back to boner ads, and coming soon, completely unethcical political ads 24/7....

Let them know how ridiculous they are and what horrible PR for the city this is. The New York Times covered this.

Let them know. Included here are their top sales people, let them know as well:
