CBS may have opened their hearts, minds and bank accounts to advocacy groups for airtime during the Super Bowl, but it has also rejected two ads that contain themes that don't meet the network's "Standards and Practices department" requirements. Not only did they reject an ad for the gay dating website ManCrunch.com, but they have also kicked off an ad from the hotbed of notorious advertising that is GoDaddy.com, which has a similar, how you say, je ne sais quoi.
Check out the GoDaddy ad that you won't be seeing during the Super Bowl below. Warning: the following video contains a sensuous looking woman in a very revealing outfit, so those of you who were expecting the usual amount of big breasted women taking their tops off in a GoDaddy commercial might be more than a little disappointed.

CBS Says No to ManCrunch.com Ad

ManCrunch.com's Super Bowl dreams are officially over.According to the Live Feed, CBS has punted the site's controversial ad that features two men kissing, claiming that the "creative is not within the Network's Broadcast Standards for Super Bowl Sunday." Additional questions were raised by the network's sales department, which said that it had trouble verifying the site -- an important factor in the payment process.
But while sources cited within the report claim that this may have all been a publicity stunt, ManCrunch.com's Elissa Butcher insists that the commercial was "100 percent serious."
