After days of deliberation, CBS has elected not to air an ad from a gay dating site during next week's Super Bowl.
A rep for the network tells Pop Tarts that ManCrunch.com's "Playing for the Same Team," an ad featuring two men kissing, failed to meet CBS' broadcasting standards.
CBS Standards and Practices has reviewed your proposed Super Bowl ad and concluded that the creative is not within the Networks Broadcast Standards for Super Bowl Sunday, the official rejection letter stated. Moreover, our Sales Department has had difficulty verifying your organizations credit status.

“IMHO, this is just another PR stunt looking for a little cheap publicity off of the Superbowl.”
...YEP!!...although,of course they deny it.

This commercial would be the polar opposite of the “man-law” beer commercials - a volatile combination.
I find the FDRQ term offensive and not necessary
I don’t think all gays are disease ridden and suspect you of being a mole
I don’t agree at all with the gay agenda, but can disagree with it without using that term
They should save it for the new U.S. Army and Marines recruiting commercials...The Few, The Proud,...
They went with the extreme left in 2008 because the economy was still so healthy that they could get away with it. They also probably thought those BayRock, backroom promises were real. If the Tiffany Network is worried enough about the mood of the people to dump a lefty commercial, we can expect real ugly coming soon. Wasn’t it LBJ who said that when he lost “Crankcase”, he must have lost the Vietnam War.
Their denial that it is a PR stunt is... another PR stunt!
Anything that get’s their name in the paper is a good thing.
But they are, every single one of them, both female and male, it's a disease, a mental one.
Close...really it is a spiritual possession just like all addictions. The gay demon just happens to be attracted to the same demon in another body.
Along with that, Super Bowl is the U.S. equivalent of the Roman Empire’s public game tournaments. See the similarities?
