Roll Call Rejects Ad For Jessica Cutler Novel

Washingtonienne_Ad.jpg

Following the now tired “banned ad strategy,” Wonkette reports an ad for the Hyperion published book, The Washingtonienne, the tell-all Jessica Cutler novel, was, first, accepted by Capitol Hill newspaper Roll Call, then rejected. Apparently, the book is “Washington’s version of Sex and the City.” Knowing Washington politics, there was probably a greasy back room deal between Hyperion and Roll Call just to manufacture this PR stunt.
