Not coming with High Flying Bird to Israel in September, Gloria?

The American Jewish Congress recently submitted to Ms. Magazine (which one would presume would be downright orgasmic about such things) this advertisement about the success of women in Israel. http://www.ajcongress.org/site/DocServer/Ms.pdf?docID=1961about.

Ms., however, rejected the ad, claiming it "will set off a firestorm" and told the AJC that Ms. "would love to have an ad from you on women's empowerment, or on reproductive freedom, but not on this."

How irrelevant can a magazine become? RIP Ms. Magazine, 1971-2008.
