CBS Reverses Decision, Agrees to Run Pro-Marijuana Ad

I'm the Organizing Director here at Change.org and I have spoken several times with the representatives at CBS including yesterday when I finally got word that the ad would be accepted and it is quite clear to me that the petition we launched was very influential and that CBS didn't even realize there was a controversy until we started our campaign. Only in response to our petition and phone calls asking for a reply did CBS even consider reversing their decision and without the attention and pressure I strongly doubt they would have even responded at all.

CBS is doing the right thing and I am very excited to see this example of internet activism getting some real-world results.
