Anti-War commercials ... how to find out ...
Reading about Salt Lake city not airing the anti war commercials has me wondering if the TV stations here will air them. Is there anyway to find out if they have air time here?

I can air them on my website if someone wants to put the right people in touch with me. it aint much but it will get several thousand views a week.

3. you'd just have to call the station mama
and ask to speak with the sales manager or sales department. you're more likely to get someone on the phone if you sound like you're going to be buying time from them.

4. when local TV stations censor, what do we do?
1. sue for discriminatory commercial airing practices?
2. picket the stations' headquarters?
3. boycott advertisers on the station?

5. 2+3 are the the only ones you'll get anything out of
any broadcast station can pretty much say what goes on the air for paid ads. I worked in radio and we use to turn down money all the time from controversial clients. not saying its right but its apparently within their rights.
