Oh Brother! TV Land GAVE IN to the AFA RE "Ohmigod!"?

OH MY GOD -- TV Land gave in?!

Remember yesterday when we showed you how the American Family Association was protesting TV Land because the network chose to use "OhMiGod" in a promotion for an upcoming 80's weekend? Well guess what? It now looks like the network has capitulated to the anti-gay, anti-liberal, anti-anyone who is not them extremist group!

If you go to TV Land's site, you will see that what yesterday read "OhMiGod," now reads:



And until the AFA issued their press release on the matter, the TV Land site had loaded up by playing an audio ad that was filled with "OhMiGod"s. Yea, well, that commercial has also been removed!

....





**UPDATE: Happily, the "OhMiGod" promo is still running as it was intended on the network itself. Here is the audio that we just got off the TV (which is basically the same ad that was running on the web site before it was pulled):
