Focus on the Family Super Bowl ad
| Mon, 01-25-2010 - 1:33pm |
And email I received from Care2. I will boycott the Super Bowl should they show Focus on the Family's ad. I'm very disappointed in CBS.
In the past, CBS has denied other organizations, like MoveOn.org and United Church of Christ, the chance to get their word out during the Superbowl because the network considered their messages to be too controversial. But it seems its definition of "controversial" has changed. CBS approved an ad by the ultra-conservative group Focus on the Family, attacking a woman's right to choose.
Thanks for taking action!

Demand that CBS pull this controversial and disrespectful ad from the Superbowl line-up >>
The Superbowl is the most-watched television program in the country -- a prime opportunity for anti-choice groups to broadcast their idea that a woman doesn't have the right to make decisions about her own body. What's worse is CBS has no plans to run a pro-choice ad to balance both sides of the issue.
CBS's decision to run the anti-choice ad is biased, unfair and unethical. Tell CBS to cancel the Superbowl ad from Focus on the Family >>

Just a note...was watching The View briefly yesterday & they talked about this FoF ad - noting that CBS has DENIED an ad placement for a gay dating website.
What's with the biblical references?
>"Tim Tebow - with his trademark biblical references painted underneath his eyes - and his mother Pam will star in the controversial anti-abortion ad."<

I have noticed the prevalence of tattoos on players & of course society in general.
Wondering why the need to express one's self in body art or in patches with a message?
Saw the commercial.
Brightest Blessings, Annika
