NBC Says Planned Parenthood Lying About Denying Commercial Buy

Luke 17:28-30 “Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built” but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.

Planned Parenthood has been launching a social media campaign attacking NBC, claiming the network refused a commercial for a movie that contains the word “abortion”.

However, NBC says the representatives of the movie never contacted them regarding any interest in buying spots to promote their movie.

Planned Parenthood’s president released a statement slamming the network with the propaganda claim that the “vast majority” of Americans support abortion and that the network “belongs in another decade” for not running commercials for the movie Obvious Child.  They ran a campaign on twitter telling NBC to “stop the stigma” of abortion.

NBC released a statement saying that the claims of the pro-abortion group are false.

“No final spots were submitted to NBC broadcast standards for on-air consideration and NBC broadcast advertising sales was never contacted about a media buy on NBC for spots related to this movie,” explained an NBC spokesperson. “Moreover, initial feedback from our broadcast standards group did not include any suggestion to remove a specific word.”

The movie, which Newsbusters’ Katie Yoder reviewed as “little more than slick pro-abortion” political propaganda, is being presented as a romantic comedy about a character who gets an abortion after becoming pregnant from a one night stand.
