Ad incident

After being dragged to a news meeting which was really a "client" meeting in which the advertisers told me what I could and could not write I am no longer allowed near anything that resembles ad copy because I didnt treat the clients the way they were supposed to be treated. The editor did not tell me they were clients, he told me they were sources. After approving all my stories he then told me to pitch it to the ad people who told me what I could and couldnt run. My dismissiveness was apparently insulting and I was taken off the insert which the editor told me I would write in its entirety.
Since then, I have been banished from anything that even vaguely resembles ad copy. I was originally hired to write for a touristy section. I will no longer be doing that. Instead, I am constricted to news and newsy arts articles, which is exactly what I wanted in the first place. Things are getting better because of this. I took a stand and now I'm where I want to be.
