Posterwire is reporting on some mainstream media outlets’ objection to the ad shown here (and another one, with a male model) advertising the movie This Film Is Not Yet Rated. It quotes an IFC rep: “The NY Times and the LA Times (among many others) both rejected our ads, because they said they were ‘vulgar.’ Also, we had to alter the artwork for outdoor, as Clear Channel would not allow a clear shot of an ass.”
