I love the new AD. Good luck with FOX. Interesting that the network that called the 2000 election early for Bush is trying to censor your ad. You have my vote!

Isn't this clear content based illegal censorship if FOX banned it because of the Bush image? How is this a close call?

They didn't ban it because of the bush image. The just don't want a liberal ad on their sacred fair and balanced channel.

Hi! I just saw your ad and hope that fox will be forced to unban it. I just want to let you know that I am a supporter, although I am not 18 yet (I am 18 in november) that you have my support and am hoping to help you win in any way I can!!

yr hawt. i vote for you.

Haha, now you are getting some national attention. Good for you! Don't these idiots learn that ignoring something instead of making a big deal out of it is the best way to stiffle free publicity? Good luck with your campaign.

Fox or any other media outlet may ban an ad for content they deem inappropriate. The ad was produced for shock value. Personally I don't find it that shocking, however, I found the total disrespect for the office of the presidency in very poor taste. Regardless of our views on this particular president, that image was tasteless.

Something similar happened in Georgia over the past two months in a billboard campaign. Good luck with the ads and with your campaign.

Reading all the rants accusing the ad of 'disrespecting the presidency' ii imagine I'm listening to all the sycophants of the 'emperor has no clothes' story ooohing and aaahing over the clothes that don't exist. The ad is perfectly right, Bush himself has brought disrespect into the Oval office with all of his lies and scapegoating. The office of the President deserves unique respect because of the responsibility the holder bears for the nation.
Since when has Bush taken any responsibility for the disasters of his administration?
Brian is right to point out his deficits and right to indicate he is not afraid of a fight to say what is true. The administration's gangsters of the right and religious have browbeaten the media and the nation into silence. Where Bush is concerned, we've really learned that Silence=Death

Figures the crazy liberals are piling on this, but even New York isn't liberal enough to fall for this and elect a Queer like you to office. Attacking a sitting President who saved your city once before is as disgusting as your lifestyle. You have a Republican Mayor and Governor for a reason. Move to Canada or France, with your fag boy.

"Truth" teller: at the very least, get your dirty, phobic, redneck mouth around some facts before you start spouting crap. "President who saved your city"? Um... This President can't even save face after this summer. And as for "crazy liberals" disrespecting the office of President, cry me a river. At least Brian didn't have to drum up fake attacks to 'dis' this one.

GREAT ADD...

Fox refusing to air your commercial is not a violation of your rights. It is their TV station and not yours. If the government forcibly prevented Fox from airing the commercial then it would be censorship. Free speech is not the right to someone else's podium.

Censorship is when someone silences you. Censorship is not a private company actually choosing not to broadcast your message on their equipment to their viewers.
Your cries of censorship are based on ignorance or deceit.

Just a reminder...that private company uses public air waves with a license from the federal government.

I know it would be asking a lot of the Republicans but everyone can read more here (for starters): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Communications_Commission

Good luck Brian!

Go get 'em, Brian. Katrina has exposed the emperor. Its almost fun watching Fox and the other cronies of the administration trip all over themselves trying to cover him back up. Whether you win or lose doesn't matter. Fox's desparate act has paid off in getting you more press than the spot would have.

I wish I was still a Manhattan resident so I could vote for you. If there were more guys like you running for office when I was I might still be there.

I just wanted to say that, although I'm in California and a moderate Republican, I support your candidacy. New York is an endearing place and I hope you can do as much there as you can to make it a shining example of what a major American city needs to be.

In Los Angeles, our new mayor isn't doing anything and I hope to run against him to show him how to effectively run a city. Although, you're not running for mayor, it's still a leadership position and I hope you shine with the best of them!

Much luck!
From California Republican, Ryan Gene.

Who are you to tell a company how to conduct their business? If you don't like what they're doing, don't support them.

But stop wasting everyone's time, confess that the only reason you are outraged is just to get free press and exposure.
