Aug 20 - ESPN urged affiliates to yank a racy commercial for a website that matches would-be adulterers looking for an affair.The website's CEO says the network is applying a double standard, allowing ads for tobacco and erectile disfunction products but not for his matchmaking service. But advertising experts say networks have to play a gatekeeping role to protect society's interests. Fred Katayama reports from New York.

Isn't marriage a condition THEY'RE trying to remedy.

Of corse adultery isn't illegal, and shouldn't be.

Sadly, adultery is not against the law.

This is agressive advertising, using the DD-bomb

isn't adultery against the law? how can you blatantly advertise that you're providing a conduit for it and not get in trouble? similar to hosting an underage drinking party? the guy was like, hey, they advertise ED medication...dude ED is a condition they're trying to remedy. A bad sex life with your spouse isn't an "ailment." then he said they advertise alcohol. drinking beer isn't a sin. screwing your neighbor's wife is. i think the phrase starts with "Thou Shalt Not..."
