PETA Denied Commerical Air Time during the Super Bowl

PETA was denied air time for their proposed Super Bowl commercial that once again objectifies women in the pursuit of stopping meat consumption.

‘Veggie Love': PETA’s Banned Super Bowl Ad

The New York Post reported this today, while PETA’s site gives a great description of the commerical: "PETA’s ad—which features a bevy of beauties who are powerless to resist the temptation of veggie love—was deemed too hot for the Super Bowl."

Exploiting one group (women) to stop exploitation of another (animals) is something I have never understood. This isn’t the first time PETA has been highlighted on Feministing for their impeccable taste and class.
