When laws against partial-birth abortion were being debated, a Christian group tried to run an ad in Florida newspapers with a diagram of the procedure, a Scripture quote, and a quote from the dissenting opinion in the original court case.
The Orlando Sentinel agreed to run the ad for $1242 but then changed the price to $5,000 dollars and said there could be no diagrams or text of dissenting opinion.
They said the ad was:
“too graphic and controversial.”
The Florida Keys Keynoter also refused the ad.
