I have a hard time believing that the loss of viewership due to these hateful and disgusting ads and thus loss of revenue is less than the legal fees imposed on whoever is airing the super bowl this year.
I am personally going to boycott the super bowl this year over this. I'll also write my congressmen to close the legal loophole regarding this.
I also called both NBC and CBS to say that unfortunate "glitches" can and do occur during programming and an unfortunate "accident" can prevent airing that content.
Finally I'll be digging through the laws to see if there's anything more recent than 1934, which is when the laws regarding censorship of political messages was passed. I can't believe there isn't.
Mr. Terry said that a "political revolution" is needed in this country. Sorry Bozo. Stupid ads like this may be protected by the 1st amendment, but it doesn't protect you or any of your cronies from my fists, nor does this "message" help you. On the contrary it exposes you and anyone who enjoys seeing such filth for the scum of the earth that they are. Fringe cultists would relish at this, NOT normal people.

Half of the people watching the super bowl are going to be under the age of 10. This is highly inappropriate. Little innocent children will be watching this. 4 year olds don't need that on there consciouce. The super bowl is supposed to be a fun family time. Not a depressing moment that steals innocence.
Shame on this idiot and his idiot supporters.
If this gos thru I will vote for pro choice out of spite and hatred for this moron, and I will use this ad to persuade people to vote for pro choice and oppose pro life, and for the record I am pro life, but if this goes thru I amm switching sides, cause I've had enough of the extremist morons that use it as a platform to abuse people.
The abortion commercials are not going to be nationally shown. They are select cities...in other words, wherever this guy can force them to be shown cuz he's a candidate for the Democrat party in some election.
The other supposedly controversial ads? googling around did not bring them up, yet. Anyone have any links proving they are still going to air?
