Associated Press
WASHINGTON —
The anti-nuclear group SANE criticized ABC today for refusing to air an anti-nuclear weapons ad during the “Amerika” series.
David Cortright, executive director of SANE, said the group rejects ABC’s “contention that ‘Amerika’ viewers must be shielded from a message about nuclear war.”
The 30-second ad shows a mushroom cloud and urges viewers to “say your peace.”
The “Amerika” series, beginning Sunday, present a fictional view of life in the United States after a Soviet takeover.
