BREAKING NEWS – St. Louis, Missouri – ESPN refuses to run a Christmas tv ad from the Children’s Medical Center because during the commercial spot, they stated that they “celebrate the birth of Jesus” and they want to reveal “God’s healing presence”. In a written response to a mountain of criticism, ESPN stated in part they didn’t run the ad, “because Jesus was probably not a sports fan, and there’s no evidence that 2000 years ago that any of the colleges in Jerusalem or Bethlehem offered athletic scholarships”.
