CHURCH BOUNCERS

Nate posted a link to this ad from the United Church of Christ that NBC and CBS are refusing to air, citing their policy against airing commercials that "deal with issues of public controversy."

Wurtzel, who is in charge of broadcast standards at the network, said such issues should be handled by the news department and not in advertising.

"The problem is not that it depicted gays, but that it suggested clearly that there are churches that don't permit a variety of individuals to participate," Wurtzel said. ''If they would make it just a positive message -- 'we're all-inclusive' -- we'd have no problem with that spot."

Decide for yourself.
