Peta Super Bowl Ad banned from TV – again ! _{By jason}

Let me start by saying that I’m not for or against PETA nor am I condemning NBC for pulling this spot. However if NBC had a problem with the veggie love commercial, wait till they see what else PETA has been cooking steaming up.

According to the PETA website NBC nixed the ad, saying it “depicts a level of sexuality exceeding our standards.” The following is the list of shots NBC requested before they’d reconsider placing the ad:

• licking pumpkin

• touching her breast with her hand while eating broccoli

• pumpkin from behind between legs
• rubbing pelvic region with pumpkin
• screwing herself with broccoli (fuzzy)
• asparagus on her lap appearing as if it is ready to be inserted into vagina
• licking eggplant
• rubbing asparagus on breast

Here is the PETA spot for your viewing pleasure.

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

I for one don’t see it any more provocative than a Victoria’s Secret ad or the Carl’s Jr. commercial in which a woman rides a mechanical bull while chowing down on a greasy beef burger. This spot is laughably tame  compared to PETA’s other recently banned commercials. Most of these I am sure never made it over to NBC, or any other media network for consideration.

WARNING – these get very hardcore both the milk gone wild commercial & chew on this are graphic and hard to watch.

I wonder what the censor’s list would look like after they viewed that little selection. So what do you think ? Has PETA gone too far or is NBC justified in calling for the commercials to be edited ?
