Would You Turn Away Money For An Ad You Feared Might Cause Controversy?

THE UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN- OSHKOSH student newspaper, the Advance-Titan, recently refused to run an advertisement from a pro-life organization, Human Life Alliance.

The newspapers' staff feared that the advertisement, a 12-page pamphlet, would cause controversy and possibly make the newspaper appear to support the pro-life cause.

Would you have run the ad? Would it appear to make the paper seem biased? Does not running the ad reveal the newspaper staff's opinions?
