CBS Says No to MoveOn but Yes to White House Drug Ads

CBS is out of line. It told MoveOn they would not accept an anti-Bush ad for the Super Bowl because they don't allow advocacy advertising--but they are going to air those insidious White House anti-drug ads. How can they say the White House ads aren't advocacy? Media Channel has the details:

The nearly 100 million viewers who tune in next month to the Super Bowl on CBS will be served up ads that include everything from beer and bikinis to credit cards and erectile dysfunction. They will also see two spots from the White House. Are these advocacy ads? And if so, why did CBS opt to include the White House spots while cutting MoveOn.org's "Child's Pay" from the program?
