Where's the commercial?

Article Abstract:

Some cutting-edge advertisements never find their way into the mainstream media for various reasons. Advertisers may cancel the ads to prevent offending a minority of people to appeal to the masses. Among these are Budweiser's 'Wild Wife,' Anheuser-Busch's rain dance and Taco Bell's 'Bigger is Better' advertisements. Another reason for cancelling ads is if the marketer and its agency fail to agree on the message to be conveyed in the advertisements.
