Christian evangelist Franklin Graham is among those criticizing the network for reversing its decision to pull a same-sex wedding ad.
The Hallmark Channel has reversed its decision to pull an ad for the wedding registry site Zola because it featured two brides kissing at their wedding. The about-face now has some conservatives, who had originally called for the commercials to be removed, venting on social media.
But pulling the Zola ad fueled even more controversy and outcry from the public, including gay celebrities such as Ellen DeGeneres and country singer Chely Wright. The backlash prompted Perry to release a mea culpa and announce the channel’s plans to “reinstate the commercials” while working with GLAAD to “better represent the LGBTQ community.”
We can change the channel. That’s what I’ll do if I’m watching @HallmarkChannel & an ad w/gay people kissing comes on. My family—& many, many others—have appreciated their wholesome content. But the LGBTQ agenda bullies everybody—including them. https://t.co/gvpu80anj1 — Janeen Butcher December 16, 2019 Way to pander to a small minority of constantly offended people who don't watch your channel to begin with. Now you've lost a majority of people who do watch your channel. Well done.
