The ad was refused. When I asked on what grounds, CBS Outdoor told me that the city said that "images of 911 were not allowed."

I was floored. I said, "It is American history. How can it be banned? What about Pearl Harbor? Is that censored too? On what grounds are 911 images banned? It is unconscionable."

The CBS Outdoor representative told me: "You can't run the plane."

This idiot doesn't know the difference between free speech and placing an ad with a private company. A company has no obligation to run any ad. They do it to make money but if they think the ad may be inflammatory they are likely to back off. And they are likely to deny anyone who wants to run such ads.......winger or liberal.

Frankly, I don't understand why Rs don't understand this concept. Are the schools GOPers attend inferior, or are GOPers the dumb ones who never learned anything while in school?

BTW if she wants to carry her stupid and outrageous sign while walking around NYC, that's her freedom of speech in action and she's entitled.
