I just saw the United Church of Christ commercial

[Pithlet]

that NBC wouldn't air, on The Travel Channel. Good for the Travel Channel. For those who don't know, UCC made a commercial showing a bouncer in front of a church turning away a gay couple, among others. A voice over said "Jesus didn't turn people away".

1. It got alot of play here on locals nbc station (youngstown oh)

and all the other stations but the local cbs station.
They have been playing it here (western pa so Im in the erie ,cleveland and pittsburg markets) for the past year.

3. I'm in Memphis

It's possible the commercial has had more play around here, but have TiVo so I zip through a lot of commercials. We were watching World Poker tournament live rather than recorded though, so we couldn't zip.

8. Rocks doesn't it

response I got from them a while back:

Dear Michael: Although our names are similar, we are much different from the Church of Christ, and are in no way affiliated with them. We support your feelings about separation of church and state, and we are "radically inclusive" in our churches, believing that our welcome mat is out for all people. Thanks so much for your support of our ads, and for writing, Tina Campbell
