• Moral Outcry reports on MTV’s Standards Department’s refusal to air Heroic Media’s pro-life ads. Really? MTV has “standards?”:

  MTV has displayed every vice known to man, every word forbidden in other public places, gross sexual behaviors, atrocious displays of lewdness….

  Sonograms, billboards, crisis pregnancy centers, waiting periods… these methods, which don’t even make abortion illegal (unfortunately) are deemed unacceptable, condemning, racist. That is mind-boggling enough, but to hear that MTV standards department has issues with such an ad only proves that with standards like that you hardly need immorality.
