K-Rock TV Spot Refused by 3 Stations, Called “Inappropriate”

K-Rock (WKRL/WKRH) has a new TV spot to promote its morning team, but it seems that the ad will be getting limited exposure.  According to cynradio.com, the three stations of CNY Central — NBC3 (WSTM), CBS5 (WTVH) and CW6 (WSTQ-LP) — have turned down the ad, calling it “inappropriate.”


Ed Levine, CEO and President of Galaxy Communications, the owner of K-Rock, tells CNYRadio.com, “CNY Central has declined to run the ad, deeming it inappropriate.”  Levine goes on to question the ruling: “Since the most revealing part of the commercial is a woman in a bra, it does make you wonder if the geniuses behind this decision ever watch their own networks!  It’s 1958 on James Street and Ozzie and Harriet are about to start.”
