WE'RE OFFENDED: Not often, but this time, yes. The San Diego Union-Tribune's in-your-face ad for "Southern Baptist Sissies" featuring an underwear clad man in crucifixion pose is unacceptable.
So is the paper's lame "we reserve the right to accept or deny advertising" statement. In the blurb, they made it sound like they're hearing the tons of negative complaints from readers but still admit the ad is running again today. (You can see the ad... and the U-T's response statement... on www.kogo.com --- click the Heard on KOGO "Mark Larson File" item). If it wasn't Christians being offended, you can bet the U-T would have also apologized for any offense. This, after all, is the paper that didn't want to inflame passions by printing the Islamic cartoons and goes out of its way to push the gay agenda at every opportunity. No, their statement is not enough... especially with no mention of Christians/Christianity. It's time to be equally sensitive to all, not just to select special interests. BTW: Hear my interview with the play's writer/director Del Shore by going to www.kogo.com and clicking on "KOGO On Demand". You'll find the segment in our Podcast section. More on this story on Monday's show between 12-3PM on KOGO.
