NBC rejected an ad by Fidelis, a Chicago-based Catholic group, which depicts President Obama from a fetus to adulthood. Basically, it's an anti-abortion advert which details Obama's background as a child who was raised by a single mother who beat all the odds and grew up to be president. And it's message is, if Obama was aborted, he wouldn't be where he is today.
Fidelis paid NBC about $1.8 million for the ad to be played during the Superbowl; NBC said hell to the no and returned their money.
