"Made at the time of the '88 presidential election, 30 SECOND SPOT RECONSIDERED is a true story told by the artist about censorship and corporate style. It is based on a true story about the adventures of the artist buying network time for a TV spot, -an ad for counter-bicentennial activities in l976, confronting the system of invisible, corporate censorship which runs broadcast television." - Boston Globe
It is often used in the current effort to protect freedom of speech from the self-appointed congressional censors, now making noise.
