Swedish TV station refuses to air 'hateful' ad, The Swedish Wire (2010)

This article reports on the decision of a Swedish private television (TV4) to reject the political advertising of the far-right Sweden Democrats. This video showed a race between an elderly woman and several women in burqas, with a slogan promising to take care of pensions, rather than immigrants. The communications director of TV4 stated that this ad contains hate grounded on race and religion, and it would break the Swedish law on freedom of expression.
