Fox News refuses to run pro-Constitution ad

Fox News has refused to air an ad produced by the Center for Constitutional Rights that criticizes the Bush administration for "destroying the Constitution" by the use of renditions, torture, and other tactics. The ad, "Rescue the Constitution," which is narrated by actor Danny Glover, can be viewed here and here.

In an email provided to Media Matters for America by the Center, Fox News account executive Erin Kelly told Owen Henkel, the Center's e-communications manager, that Fox would not run the ad:

Hi Owen --

We cannot approve the spot with it being Danny Glover's opinion that the Bush Administration is destroying the Constitution. If you have documentation that it is indeed being destroyed, we can look at that.

Sorry about that,

Erin

In 2005, Fox refused to run an ad critical of then-Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito Jr., who had been nominated by President Bush to succeed retiring Justice Sandra Day O'Connor.

AND Media Matters!

This law school graduate (non-practicing) is glad someone is speaking up for the Constitution! Moreover, you couldn't find more qualified people than the team at the Center!

running out of revenue or sponsors and they need this ad money like the air we breathe!

It's only our Constitution and I can see why faux and their chickenshithawks don't want to remind viewers that bushit is thrashing IT with the help of the US's mediawhores and propoganda machines hooked up to the chimphouse.
