if they are going to approve a political message, they should be required to air the opposite view moondog Send a noteboard - 28/01/2010 05:27:33 AM
of course, this argument holds no water whatsoever because (a) the ad in question is being bought -- for quite a bit of money at that, and (b) equal time only counts for campaign ads during an election year.

still, if cbs were fair, they would air an opposing viewpoint to the tebow ad if for no other reason than to stop the uproar in its tracks.
