In an email provided to Media Matters for America by the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR), Fox News account executive Erin Kelly told Owen Henkel, CCR's e-communications manager, that Fox would not run the ad:
Hi Owen --
We cannot approve the spot with it being Danny Glover's opinion that the Bush Administration is destroying the Constitution. If you have documentation that it is indeed being destroyed, we can look at that.
Sorry about that,
Erin

The Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR) was founded 40 years ago CCR in order to provide legal support for the activists during the civil rights movement.

plez sez: the Fake News Network distributes so much misinformation and half-truths on a daily basis it boggles the mind... i guess if this ad were in support of the Bush Administration, there'd be little hesitation in running it.

The name Fox has such a bad connotation with me that I can't even watch the NFC half the time having to look at the name Fox in the corner of the screen. I do occasionally tune in to the "pundits" on Fox because you know the saying "keep your friends close and your enemies closer". I keep Fox as close as I can tolerate!
man, we may as well be in facisty Italy
it is surprising that they continue to pawn themselves off as a legitimate news organization!
