ABC Refuses to Run Right to Life Ad That Attacks Obama

The ABC television network is coming under fire from a leading pro-life group for censoring a political radio ad that criticizes Barack Obama's pro-abortion voting record. National Right to Life hoped to run the ad during the nationally syndicated Sean Hannity radio program.

The ad asks Obama when he will apologize for calling the group "liars" for pointing out how he misrepresented his votes in the Illinois legislature against bills that would require medical care for babies who survive failed abortions.

Two nonpartisan groups, FactCheck.org and PolitiFact.com have verified NRLC's claims as true -- leading the pro-life group to produce the ad.

So what's this all about? Looks as if they are disputing Obama's claims.

Get ready for lots of this if hes elected. Nothing ever does will be wrong and the media will do whatever it can to make him look flawless. It'll be like living in the soviet union (media wise).

There is no indication that Obama has anything to do with ABC's decision.

Exactly. Just like Obama has nothing to do with the constant attacks on McCain and Palin carried out my his friendly media. That way Obama can sit back and claim to be running an honorable campaign. Point out on instance of the media attacking Obama. Outside of Foxnews its never happened.

After Obama is elected the media will have won the election for him and will do their best to make him appear perfect. Mark my words.

And even if Obama did, ABC News is a business. They deny ads/commercials/programs all the time. If they feel it will negatively affect their business they will do it.
