I worry about our democracy when networks refuse to air ads expressing political or policy views. Though the logic and factual basis of this ad are ridiculous, how can NBC and ABC refuse to run it?
Sure, it’s inaccurate, hollow, tedious and poorly produced. But those aren’t good enough reasons to refuse airing political views. If the networks don’t run this ad, they shouldn’t run any ad on this subject. If it’s inaccurate or disputed, then the networks’ news teams should present the facts and opposing viewpoints during its new programming. But the ad should run.
