CBS Rejects Gay-Dating Ad for Super Bowl

[TheDancinMonarch]

Let all the stoopid sonsabitches who want to waste their money on a Super Bowl commercials do so.

Distasteful as it WILL be, more free speech is good for the country, as it will inspire more discussion of issues, some of which might actually be helpful.

Just keep it out of the schools below college level.

Are you opposed to any type of sex ed in high school?

No, there is a probably place for sex ed in high school, but the educational system changes I might propose would go farther than sex ed.

Thanks for the tip of the hat on free speech, Jon. Although some free speech pisses me off, the alternatives to free speech are worse.

As soon as they can successfully teach the three R's then maybe they can move on to more complex subjects.

Teaching isn't the issue - it is the parent's expectations (or lack there of) that are the issue.

Do parents have expectation about their kids learning reading riting, and rithmatic? People who can read, write and "cipher" can be taught more complex subjects.

Now ODU/Northeastern is on the tube and I have gotta watch. So go on without me.

[ASUG8]

This is all going to make Janet Jackson's nipple seem insignificant.

[catamount man]

People with big mouths rule this country.......that why religion is becoming more powerful in the USA.

Ah, good ol' mainejeff... the Father Pfleger of cs.com...

nah, Pfleger is a Catholic who still believes in God. jeffy boy just shows up, takes his shot and criticizes his Priest.

Your concerns over the LGBT agenda notwithstanding? Good on ya Native! I appreciate your consistency on free speech.

Sex ed should be taught by the parents, same as religion. Just as I'm not ready yet to discuss viagra commercials with my young kids, I feel the same way about Christianity and gay relationships. I just wish the network would simply decide to air appropriate commercials focused on non offensive issues like the swilling of beer.

[TheDancinMonarch]

...swilling of beer.

Finally something I can get behind.

Forced-birth Ad by Hate Group - OK
Ad promoting love - BAD

The Super Bowl ad debate increased Friday as CBS officially rejected an ad for a gay men’s dating Web site, according to a report on Mashable.com.

The rejection of the ad is likely to add flames to the fire over the acceptance of an ad from anti-gay group Focus on the Family.

You have been very angry lately...everything ok man?

I watched the commercial on deadspin yesterday. Didn't see anything wrong with it, nor did I think it was a good commercial. It didn't appear to really be an ad promoting love...but, I thought it was funny, especially with the Packers and Vikings jersey.

I guess what I don't understand about either "controversy" (Tebow ad, gay ad) is who watches the commercials? I could care less about the commercials, I want to watch the Saints defense annihilate Peyton!

In that case I think you're going to be sorely disappointed.

Good post Kalm, I hate the viagra ads, enzyte ads and all pharmaceutical ads.

Probably. I was when the Colts beat the Bears too. Oh well.

Our country is so uptight and hypocritcal about sexual relationships it is unbelieveable. Europeans think we are insane. We have no qualms with showing graphic violence to our children on TV every night and yet ban an ad invites people to a website. We raise our children on violence. No one is forcing anyone to do anything. Where are all the conservatives pounding their chests over freedom and liberty? Oh, yes, over on the FAUX Channel, that bastion of 'family values'..until you see the shows in their lineup.

Jon, I am sorry for you that you were forced to be born.

Fu*k Europe and quit trying to act like anyone in this country gives a flying fu*k what those liberal losers think.

I would rather my son watch a terrorist getting punched, water boarded and killed than a couple of dudes sucking each other off.

Why is the approval of Europeans important to you?

Is his point not still valid? Why are we so uptight (as a society) about sex, but at the same time don't give a shit about violence?

[Ursus A. Horribilis]

Because we don't(as a society).

I am not for censorship for adults, but I am for censorship of both sex and violence for children.

Due to "popular" culture, our society is all the more coarse and impoverished.

[BDKJMU]

Unless they are showing guys having sex with each other.......what the F is the problem?

This country is the epitome of HYPOCRISY.........I'm sure that we'll see plenty of Sandals Resort ads though.

They rejected Ashley Madison last yr, so I don't see any hypocrisy. Abortion to gay dating= apples to oranges.
