Salt Lake Tribune To Run Full Page Ad “Lies in the Name of the Lord” Tomorrow

Brooklyn, N.Y.-based Truth Wins Out says it will take out a full-page advertisement Thursday in The Salt Lake Tribune under the headline, “Lies in the Name of the Lord.” It’s a response to another full-page ad placed in last Friday’s New York Times by supporters of the California constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage that passed on Election Day. The New York Times ad accused opponents of Proposition 8 of waging mob violence. Truth Wins Out director Wayne Besen says that ad grossly distorted peaceful protests across the country that followed in the wake of the California vote. [AP]
