Political ads are in an entirely different category than commercials for products. They're political speech and protected by the First Amendment. Ads for marijuana legalization campaigns are political speech. That said, media owners are free not to accept advertising. Nothing requires them to sell it to you. This is called "Freedom of the Press": he who owns the press (TV station, radio station, newspaper, magazine, website, etc.) is free to publish what he pleases. If you don't own the press, you're SOL.

| Im not 100 percent sure on this but I have thought about this before and I think that no matter how much money you offered to get prime tv time...the stations will be weary of allowing a pro drug legalization commercial. The media would run wild with it plus it could scare off some of the other sponsors who pay the bills for the tv people. Kinda like..."I dont want my dish soap commercial to be aired in conjuction with a marijuana commercial because it reflects negatively on the company. I remember a bunch of sponsors freaked over the whole Imus thing and didnt want their product associated with it.
