In These Times: Pushing Back Against Ad Censorship (8/31/06) by Paul Waldman & Matthew Biedlingmaier
MoveOn's million-dollar anti-GOP ad campaign continues to meet media resistance.
Television stations in many key areas refused to air the ads, or pulled them after the member of Congress complained. So far, six television stations have refused the ads.... In Virginia Cox Communications stopped running the advertisements on the basis of “business risks.”... In fact, we’ve seen this script play out multiple times in recent years. In contrast, we were able to find only one recent case of a conservative group experiencing a similar problem.... Maybe it’s that all of the conservative ads on the air are fair, factual and family-friendly, while the ads from progressive groups are libelous and laced with obscenity? Clearly not.
