KING 5 reports that this stupid ad—which I've addressed previously—has been rejected by King County Metro, as it runs afoul of a policy prohibiting "advertising expressing or advocating an opinion, position or viewpoint on matters of public debate about economic, political, religious or social issues."

It's not particularly clear, but that stupid ad is designed to address the lack of access to healthy food in poorer neighborhoods, which I imagine counts as advocating an opinion on a social issue. But it fails so hard in expressing this point that I almost think it should get a pass.

For a full explication on the stupidity of this ad, go here.
