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.

Wow, that's impressive. They consider you a significant enough competitor to turn away your ads! That is quite a compliment and quite an accomplishment. A part of you must have been really proud, no?
