It might be too late for this particular PSA. In the future critical PSA's could be subject to competitive bidding without the forum setting a price.
If the forum bid is for this critically important Public Service Announcement, I might suggest an alternative approach that may be a better outcome for all three parties. Instead of excluding one paid slot to enable the PSA, why not make one slot "XYZ sponsors the critical MacOS X corruption fix bounty!" The cost of such a slot would be higher than a typical ad, but the PR value of supporting such an important cause that benefits the entire Bitcoin ecosystem may be worth that extra one-time expense. Posting an ad reading "Brand name sponsors critical Bitcoin fix." has a greater potential to gain credibility over a typical "You want my product/service" that you normally see in an advertisement.
Thoughts? (Perhaps this MBA school thing was useful for something after all...)

I don't know. Is anyone here interested in this?
This alternative should be appealing to those that want the slot.

I'm confused, if the "forum" is paying to the forum for advertising, why not just take one slot out of the bidding?
Because if someone will pay more than 6.5 BTC for it, they can have it.
