Alicia Silverstone PETA Ad Ban; Comcast Pulls Houston Ad
Alicia Silverstone’s nude PETA ad (Read Original Story Here) has been banned from the Houston airwaves.
The 30-second spot was scheduled to run more than a dozen times in the Houston market, because the Texas city is reportedly one of the unhealthiest in America, but aComcast spokesperson said that the ad’s featured nudity posed to much of a civil threat.
“Houston viewers can still go to PETA.org and get an eyeful, not only of the stunning Ms. Silverstone, but also of our free Vegetarian Starter Kit—chock full of delicious recipes—that will make them drool for an entirely different reason,” PETA president Ingrid Newkirk said in a statement.
