I've seen a lot of people posting about this commercial that NBC and CBS are refusing to air. But there's also another commercial that's been banned in Los Angeles as well. It's an anti-syphilis commercial. Now why would TV stations refuse to run a commercial warning of the dangers of syphilis? Because of the messenger.
That's Phil the Sore. He's the spokesman, so to speak, for the commercial. Not exactly Sponge Bob, and I doubt toy companies are scrambling for the marketing rights. Maybe they were trying to scare people into not having sex.
