"Freedom means freedom for everyone."
According to WRCB-TV in Chattanooga, marriage equality is simply
too controversial for airwaves:
The ad features Jesse Ehrenfeld, a Nashville doctor and Navy reservist who recently returned from Afghanistan. In the ad, Ehrenfeld says, "I was able to stand up and put my life on the line for the freedoms that we all enjoy, and yet I don't have the freedom to marry my partner Judd."
Nevertheless, the ad is running in other markets:
Marc Solomon is the national campaign director at Freedom to Marry, which produced the 30-second advertisement. He said Tuesday that WRCB-TV declined the ad as too controversial. Solomon said other television stations in Chattanooga, Nashville and Memphis are running it.
In the ad, Jesse Ehrenfeld notes he's a "Republican, a doctor and a soldier" and he wants freedom for everyone. See the ad:
