Full page ad in poor taste

Hold it, just hold it a moment!! Rocky Mountain News daily features pictures of grieving families or writes columns of “news” concerning drive-by shootings, a National Day Commemorating Families of Murder Victims, anniversaries of heinous deaths, and multiple reports of suicide bombers wreaking death, injury, and havoc around the world, yet...has the egregiously twisted audacity to publish a full color page advertisement for Showtime’s season premier of DEXTER, AMERICA’S FAVORITE SERIAL KILLER!!
What perversion and gross insensitivity!! Your paper makes me sick! But, hey, there’s no other paper offered in metro Denver. Rocky Mountain News owes every Colorado family an apology for depicting a blood-spattered young man as a humorous side-dish in their evening viewing fare. As for me and my house, we won’t order or receive such a villainous cable channel.
SHAME ON YOU!

R. Faber: CLEARLY, you have never seen Dexter. If you had, you would likely welcome him into your home. I know I would. As he said in the first season, last episode: he's the garbage man. Just doin' his job of taking out the trash.

Kisses!!!

R, -
Almost all the channels are the same. Inane and pandering. I basically stopped watching years ago. I wish I didn't have to even see the advertisements for these types of shows during baseball games!

dear writer, it is a good thing you have the choice in this country to turn the page or channel if you do not like what is being shown. if your gonna whine about uit turn your channels or turn the page, don't look at it.

if your complaining about this you should do something constructive like walk , read a book, go shopping , clean house ,
