Aren't there standards as to the content that can be broadcast over the air? You don't see programming with such grotesque content during the day - why should commercials be any different?

I get that the law requires them to run political ads - and while an ordinary political ad might be annoying, it wouldn't be as highly offensive as the ads in question.

The guy pushing these ads is a grade A douchebag and I hope there's a huge backlash against him for pulling this stunt. What a dick.
