Film at 11: Equal Time

[athelind]

It infuriates me that, while almost every prime-time show we watch regularly has at least one ad supporting the reprehensible Proposition 8, I have yet to see a single ad opposing it. What happened to "equal time"?

Or is this a situation where those foul "pro" ads work just as well to stoke up the fury of any thinking person against this?

From the bile these people spew, you'd think that they believe that if their proposition to Eliminate Rights* doesn't pass, same-sex marriage will become mandatory for everyone.

*Bless you, Jerry Brown, for renaming this Act to accurately describe what it means.

The bigger question is, howcome when we have a Democrat and a Republican are aired, third parties aren't a mandatory addition? The Democrats always ask "THIS is for the greater good" and the Republicans always respond "THAT is for the greater good" but under the rules as they exist, nobody has to propose "the greater good isn't what's important"?

Seems like a scam to me, saying that there are only two sides to every issue.
