American Family Assn: ABC is pro-gay and anti-Christian.....
Advertisements [?]
..... :rofl: :crazy:



ABC has one standard for homosexuals and a different standard for Christians

Poll: Would you be willing to boycott sponsor of Dana Jacobson's show



ABC fired an actor because of an anti-gay comment, but gave anchorwoman who told an audience 'F---Jesus' what amounted to a one-week vacation.

Last June, when actor Isaiah Washington, star of ABC's show Grey's Anatomy, made an anti-gay slur in reference to openly homosexual T.R. Knight, the network immediately fired Washington.

But when ESPN (owned by ABC) anchorwoman Dana Jacobson publicly said "F--- Notre Dame," "F--- Touchdown Jesus" and finally "F--- Jesus," the network gave her a one week suspension. In essence, ABC gave Jacobson a one week vacation.

ABC has two standards, one for anti-gay comments and one for anti-Christian comments. Those who use anti-gay comments are punished. Those who use anti-Christian comments are supported.

If ABC refuses to fire Jacobson, would you be willing to support a one-year boycott of the sponsor of her program?

Please forward this to family and friends. After you have taken the poll, please call ESPN at 1-860-766-2000 and politely ask that they fire Jacobson.
