PETA Super Bowl Ad Banned (“Veggie Love” Video)
This Super Bowl ad from animal rights activists with People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has been banned by NBC for being too hot for TV.
NBC has nixed PETA ‘s “”Veggie Love” commercial, which depicts women dry-humping pumpkins and eggplants, claiming the ad “depicts a level of sexuality exceeding our standards.”
Do you agree with NBC’s decision to reject PETA’s Super Bowl ad?

So you mean to tell me that "Desperate Housewives" and :Sex and the City" are okay for tv, but a commercial that doesnt show body parts and only implies sex with veggies is bad? What about the steaking sheep in the Budweiser commercial…that wasnt banned.
