Censorship!!! Rolling Stone refuses to allow the Bible to be advertised

Rolling Stone refuses ad for the book where the stone was rolled away Posted by Hello


Rolling Stone magazine, a magazine that I have held in the highest regard, a magazine that I am a lifelong subcriber, that has published my comments in the past, has refused to allow a version of the Bible to be advertised. It is hypocritical that this magazine that in the past has protested about censorship of any kind would censor the Bible.
See the entire article at
CNN.
Here is the copy that was to be used:
"In a world of almost endless media noise and political spin, you wonder where you can find real truth. Well, now there's a source that's accurate, clear and reliable. It's the TNIV -- Today's New International Version of the Bible. It's written in today's language, for today's times -- and it makes more sense than ever."
Media outlets that agreed to carry the ad include Modern Bride, The Onion, MTV.com and AOL.
