After reading through this thread, I just don't understand something about these 9/11 ads.One the one side you have actual people who have lost family members who are upset; especially the ones that are working at getting the 9/11 Commission to be accurate and deep probing. (And on a side note, the White House STILL will not release or provide all information it wants); Firefighters who lost co-workers are upset and angry about images of bodies being pulled out.And then on the other side you have politicians and strategists who have no real ties to New York who are saying the ads are "tastefully done." My concern is, who's feelings are more important here? Famlies of the killed or politicians and strategists?
And I know some family members have said the ads are alright but I would think this is one of those things that is off limits if even ONE family member says the ads are disrespectful and out of order.
