TV stations in Grand Rapids, Mich., and Columbus, Ohio, have canceled a paid program from the American Family Association (AFA) titled “Speechless: Silencing Christians,” calling the content controversial.
AFA Chairman Don Wildmon said WSYX Channel 6 in Columbus rejected the program because it “did not represent positive Christianity.” Diane Kniowski, station manager for WOOD-TV in Grand Rapids, could not be reached for comment.
“The program is about silencing Christians,” Wildmon said. “And these two stations, without knowing it, made our point precisely."
The hour-long program looks at the cultural influence of the homosexual agenda and how it has affected the family. It can be seen online.
TAKE ACTION
Call or e-mail WSYX-TV and ask the station to air the program.
