CBS explains ... what, exactly?
" Because this commercial touches on the exclusion of gay couples and other minority groups by other individuals and organizations ... this spot is unacceptable for broadcast " - part of an explanation by CBS

I'm relaxing on the couch Sunday, watching my Patriots rip apart the Browns on CBS. During many of the post-touchdown commercial breaks, there was a spot for T-Mobile where couples confront one another over the fact that their cell phone bills are so high because they're always calling each other. T-Mobile solves this particular fiscal/relationship crisis by offering free calls between lovebirds.

Of course, what struck me about all this is that one of the couples clearly consists of two men.
