To the Editor:

I am highly offended by the sexual content in the latest Hardees/Carl’s Jr. television commercials known as “Patty Melt” and “Flat Buns.” In my opinion, they violate local community standards.

Our local TV stations are licensed to “serve the public interest” in our community, so we should ask that they refuse to air these ads. If they are already airing them, they should stop.

I’m sending them an e-mail letter and asking that, as required by law, they place a copy in their station’s public file, to be readily available to FCC representatives, specifically during the license renewal period for thestation.
