Propaganda Alert: Randall Terry to Air Aborted Fetus Ads During Super Bowl Sunday

Anti-choice activist Randall Terry thinks your family should be subjected to graphic images of aborted fetuses with their popcorn during the February 5th Super Bowl.

Referred to as a “longshot presidential candidate” by CNN –yes, this self-proclaimed Democrat has attempted to challenge Obama for the presidency– team Terry has purchased time slots during the biggest sports event of the year.

Terry reported that he has already dropped cash for spots in 13 markets. According to CNN, commercials will run in five different locations during the game: Ada, Oklahoma; Grand Junction, Colorado; Paducah, Kentucky; and Joplin and Springfield, Missouri. The other eight will run during the pregame.

In a message to supporters earlier this month, Terry wrote:

“We will reach TENS OF MILLIONS OF AMERICANS, and get enormous media coverage as well. And THAT, my friend, is what the babies deserve. And it is exactly what people like “Sophia” and The Abortion Gang who murder unborn babies dread. They FEAR Americans seeing the truth. Let’s be a voice for the babies.”

If his words aren’t troubling enough, there isn’t much the networks can do to put a halt to this type of content. According to Section 315 of the FCC Telecommunications Act, stations are prohibited from altering or censoring political ads within 45 days of a presidential primary or caucus.

Though these commercials will most likely be plastered across our television screens come February, you can still let NBC know that this propaganda campaign is so not cool.

Yes, this is sexist. Ads that are an assault on reproductive rights are inherently sexist. (Especially coming from a cisman!)
