Media Bias – Pro-life Superbowl Ad Rejected by NBC

This has to be my favorite pro-life ad ever and to see NBC reject it for prime time viewing during the Superbowl disappoints me, yet doesn’t surprise me.  After watching them through the 2008 election expose their major bias towards President Obama, it’s clear to me that they lack integrity when it comes to reporting the news.  Now I’m not the type to necessarily believe that a single commercial will necessarily change someone’s opinion, though I suppose someone on the edge of such a paramount decision could be swayed by this ad.  It is effective.  But obviously, what bothers me is censorship based on an agenda.  Now I realize that it isn’t without precedent to see a major network keep political ads from being aired during the superbowl, however NBC’s reason for doing this exposes their double standard.  They recently rejected an ad by PETA based on the grounds that it was too sexually explicit.  However, to the Catholic group Fidelis, they stated that they do not allow advocacy ads.  Well, I’m not sure if anyone told them, but PETA is an advocacy group.

So, since it may not air during the Superbowl, I thought I’d show it here.  There’s absolutely nothing objectionable about this so no warning is necessary.
