TV ads on gays draw wrath from Pat Robertson network
The P Flag campaign features dramatic scenes of a teen contemplating suicide and a beating intercut with clips of Rev. Pat Robertson and other conservatives. CBN threatens legal action if aired, prompting eight stations to reject the ads while CNN and others weighed acceptance for limited airings. The push aims to warn against hate speech and violent climates toward gays and lesbians.
