UPDATE - Breitbart News exclusively learned on Thursday afternoon that ESPN will air the original ad on Saturday from Cardinal Glennon Children's Medical Center with the words "Jesus" and "God."

ESPN issued this statement to Breitbart News on Thursday:

“We have again reviewed the ads submitted for the SSM Cardinal Glennon Children’s Medical Center and have concluded that we will accept the original requested commercial. It will run in Saturday’s VCU at Northern Iowa basketball game on ESPNU. This decision is consistent with our practice of individual review of all ads under our commercial advocacy standards.”

The other breath holding issue ...

Will the NFL back away and let that Daniel’s Defense ad run on the Super Bowl.

Keep up the fight

ESPN kisses up to Obama every chance they get.

And Obama watches (Award winning) Sports Center non-stop. When he’s not golfing.

I’m not sure if anyone else has noticed, but I have seen an interesting inclusion of things religious this season. The NBC stage presentation of “the Sound of Music” was just one of a number of programs I have seen that include mentions of God and Christmas Season.

Athiests, I feel your pain... :^)

Pushing back occasionally has the desired result.

The old radicals got to have their second childhood by protesting GWB and the Iraq war 10 years ago. But now they're really old radicals, and I see their influence beginning to dwindle. They're becoming irrelevant, just like the President who thought he could succeed by hopping on their bandwagon.
