CNN<\/i> reports that “Anheuser-Busch is pulling an advertisement planned for this year’s Super Bowl that would have poked fun at last year’s infamous ‘wardrobe malfunction’<\/a> that exposed Janet Jackson’s breast during the halftime show.” Budweiser’s web site is apparently showing the ad, but I suggest checking out one of the links listed a bit down the thread at Metafilter<\/a>.
