In October 2021, conservative advocacy group Independent Women’s Voice (IWV) produced a TV advertisement containing illustrations from a book found at a local public school library. The ad had been rejected as too explicit to run during late-night hours, with some stations unwilling to broadcast even with the images blurred.

“They wouldn’t run this ad because they said it was too explicit,” IWV Vice President Carrie Lukas said in an interview with The Epoch Times. “If you saw the pictures in this, most people will say, ‘That’s pornography.’”
