Extreme Media Slant III

As everyone knows, in the past ten years, tv shows have sold context advertisements. Context advertisements differ from traditional commercials in that they happen during the course of a show, and the characters or hosts will casually drop the name of a product.

For an even longer time, tv shows have had context advertisements for their views. For example, tonight a character mentioned "Our Bodies, Our Selves" in a favorable light. Most people who abstain from pre-natal murder know that "Our Bodies, Our Selves" is to the pro-aborts what "Mein Kempf" was to the Nazis.

You think there will ever be a reasonable character (i.e. a good guy) on TV who uses the M-word to describe abortion? You think they'll ever show a real abortion on TV?

One can only speculate on the change in public opinion if they ever showed a real abortion, complete with the body parts of the victim, etc., on prime-time nation-wide broadcast TV. Of course, they would never do it for this very reason.
