Fahrenheit 9/11 Refused News Hour Ad Space By The Big Three Broadcast Networks
(Posted In)
Media bias? What media bias?
LA Weekly has just run an article detailing how Sony has been refused ad space for the DVD release of Fahrenheit 9/11 by ABC, CBS and NBC. Sony didn't even bother to ask Fox. All three major networks refused to sell them ad space during the news hour - peak time for advertisers wanting to hit an adult audience - citing proximity to the coming US federal election. Damn those media leftists always giving Bush a hard ti ... oh wait ... maybe Fox News is gonna have to find something else to rant about for a while ...

I constantly saw ads for this movie on Fox, CNN, MSNBC . . I hardly evever watch ABC, CBS, NBC . .so I can't comment on that. But as long as you're talking about Bias, why don't you have any reviews for FarenHype 911 that has been out just as long?
