UPDATE: the Washington Post is reporting that NBC has reversed their decision and will air the ad.
..in a statement issued Saturday evening, NBC said:
“We have reviewed and changed our ad standards guidelines and made the decision that our policy will apply to content only and not to a referenced Web site. Based on these amended standards the Freedom’s Watch ad will begin to run as early as Sunday.”
NBC’ head of standards and practices, Alan Wurtzel, notified Freedom’s Watch’s media consultant Saturday by e-mail, writing: “This will confirm that the Freedom’s Watch spot is approved for air.”
Knowing that the ratings would bottom out more than usual they had no choice but to approve the ad.
Newt Gingrich calls for boycott of NBC/MSNBC over refusal to air patriotic TV ad.
The Freedom’s Watch ad that NBC/MSNBC doesn’t want you to see on their networks:
