Talk of the Villages use to be a semi regular advertiser in the Villages Daily Sun. Suddenly, one day, we got a call from our sales rep saying, "we decline to accept your advertising." I called the sales manager and he said, "we decline to accept your adverting." I called the executive editor and he said, "we decline to accept your advertising. I called the publisher and didn't get a return call.

So, the newspaper doesn't have to print anything they don't want to.

BTW Talk of The Villages reserves the right to decline certain advertising as well. However, in our case, we tell the prospective customer "why" we made that decision. The newspaper doesn't do that.

It's their newspaper and they can do with it what ever they please.
