Florida Right to Life Cheers Tebow Ad to Air on CBS During Super Bowl

NARAL and it's partner "Women's Media Center" have targeted CBS for its plans to air an autobiographical TV commercial describing why University of Florida quarterback Tim Tebow felt his mother made the right choice not to abort him when she was diagnosed with a serious medical condition during pregnancy.

The completely non-partisan commercial is narrated by Tim Tebow, and does not contain criticism of any interest groups. Women's Media Center, with the full backing of NARAL and its affiliates, have launched a national campaign this week attacking Tim Tebow and CBS by launching an online petition to censor CBS for exercising its First Amendment right to speech.

Florida Right to Life finds it disturbing that NARAL and its allies have so little regard
for the right of a media organization to express itself freely under the First Amendment. Carrie Eisnaugle, President of Florida Right to Life stated, "CBS should be applauded for standing up against anti-constitutional threats to its freedom.  We also believe Tim Tebow has the right to tell his story, and we applaud him for having the courage to do so." 

It has become painfully obvious that the last thing the anti-life movement desires is for true stories from individuals like Tim Tebow to become known to the larger American audience.
