So MTV, of all stations, has decided not to run ads for Supersize Me, the award-winning expose on just how bad fast food is for you. The official word is that MTV found the ads “disparaging to fast food restaurants.” You have to laugh.
As a side note, I actually went to the theater to see Supersize Me a couple of weeks ago, and what I saw of it was very good. Yes, I fell asleep in the theater, but that in no way reflects on the quality of the documentary, only on my own abilities to function normally after 10 p.m.
