Pro-Lifers,</span>
<p><font style="font-size: 11pt;" face="Arial,sans-serif"><b>Today, National Right to Life received
notice from ABC Radio Network that it would not air National Right
to Life's ad</b> entitled "Waiting for Obama's Apology," during Sean
Hannity's radio program. </font>
</p><p><font style="font-weight: 700; font-size: 11pt;" face="Arial,sans-serif"><a rel="nofollow" title="http://srv.ezinedirector.net/?n=2470726&s=72992070

</p><p align="left"><font style="font-size: 11pt;" face="Arial,sans-serif">In
an email to National Right to Life, ABC Radio Network executives
claimed the ad, "while supporting aspects of a Pro-Life position,
weighs more heavily toward electioneering." The ad was to be paid
for by National Right to Life Political Action Committee (NRL PAC),
which is allowed to do "electioneering" under federal
law.<br><br>"<b>ABC's rejection smacks of being a politically
motivated gag order</b>," said Derrick Jones, NRLC Communications
Director. "It seems that the pro-Obama leanings of the mainstream
media have overflowed into their sales departments as well. To
reject a political action committee's ad because they think it is
too political, borders on the absurd."<br><br>The ad focuses on
NRL's role in revealing that Obama had for four years misrepresented
his record on the Illinois Born-Alive Infants Protection Act
(BAIPA).<br><br>"Four years ago, NRL PAC ran electioneering ads
supporting George W. Bush. <b>ABC's lame excuse this year fails to
hide their true motivation of helping Barack Obama conceal his
extreme pro-abortion position from the American public</b>," Jones
added.<br><br>On August 11, NRLC released recently uncovered
documents proving that Obama in 2003 had presided over a committee
meeting at which he killed a version of the BAIPA that was virtually
identical to the federal BAIPA that Congress had enacted, without a
dissenting vote, in 2002. This contradicted four years of statements
by Obama on the matter. When Obama was asked about NRLC's charges in
a televised interview on August 16, he said that NRLC was "lying."
Independent investigations by FactCheck.org and Politifact.org have
since concluded that NRLC's claim was accurate and that Obama's
denial was not. The ad refused by ABC quotes the FactCheck.org
conclusion that "Obama is misrepresenting the contents of" the bill
that he killed.<br><br>"<b>The ABC gag rule is part of a broader
pattern of behavior in which the mainstream news media filter out or
distort the extremes of Obama's pro-abortion record</b>, including
his actions to block legislation to protect infants born alive
following abortions in Illinois, his commitment to enact the
so-called "Freedom of Choice Act," which would make partial-birth
abortion legal again and nullify all parental notification laws, and
his support for requiring taxpayer funding of abortion," said NRLC
Legislative Director Douglas Johnson, author of an article on the
Obama abortion agenda <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://srv.ezinedirector.net/?n=2470727&s=72992070">published
