Tim Tebow Super Bowl Ad Controversy

February 2. 2010

Tim Tebow

There has been a significant amount of controversy in America regarding college football player Tim Tebow's pro-life commercial, to air at this year's Super Bowl. Typical of the liberal media to believe only their point of view matters, when the constitution states everyone in entitled to free speech.

It's really hypocritical of the liberals to claim they adhere to the constitution then pull stunts like this aimed and muzzling freedom of speech. The Judiciary Report is of the belief the Tebow ad should air.

CBS Sells Last Super Bowl Spot; Focus on the Family Ad Stays in Spotlight

Ad Sale to Focus on the Family Raises Eyebrows, Questions

CBS has come under the spotlight for a decision to allow an ad that takes a stance on a controversial topic. Christian group Focus on the Family purchased an ad that will feature college football star Tim Tebow and his mother, who has been vocal about her decision not to have an abortion when she was pregnant with her son despite doctors’ recommendations.
Focus on the Family says the ad will have a “Celebrate family, celebrate life” message, but some fear it will feature a more blatant anti-choice theme.

Until now, CBS has had a policy of refusing to air ads that advocate specific views on “controversial issues of public importance.”
“This year we are going to call it the Controversy Bowl,” Mike Sheldon, chief executive of Deutsch LA, is quoted as saying in the Los Angeles Times. “It used to be a championship football game, then it became an advertising showcase, and now the Super Bowl has turned into a microphone for special interests. It has become so much bigger than a football game.” Deutsch created Super Bowl spots this year for Volkswagen and Dr Pepper Cherry.
