Andrew Cuomo objected to a cleavage-baring subway ad for breast enhancement surgery. Howard Glaser, Cuomo's director of state operations, wrote to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority on Tuesday asking the agency to take action regarding the revealing advertisement. "Tens of thousands of children ride the transit system every day to go to school," Glaser wrote in the letter, which he said was offered on behalf of the Democratic governor. "The public has a right to expect that the MTA will strive for a family friendly environment." The Daily News first reported on the subway ad and Glaser's letter. Glaser also indicated in his letter that the MTA had advised the governor's office earlier that the advertisement conformed to the authority's standards. "With all due respect, we suggest that these standards need to be revisited," he wrote. LOL...im sorry but what could be more family friendly in the history of the world? |
