FFRF to make TV history: Help us air Ron Reagan's ad for FFRF  on 'Daily Show' & 'Colbert Report' next week!

Dear FFRF Member,                                                                          Watch this ad online! 

ronWe’re delighted to announce that Ron Reagan, who has been so outspoken as an atheist even while his father was president, and who has been part of FFRF’s Honorary Board for several years, has recorded a TV commercial for FFRF — a “celebrity endorsement.” We consider it essential to go public as nonbelievers, following last week’s bruising Supreme Court decision that turned the nonreligious into second-class citizens. 

In an exciting development, FFRF has contracted to air our 30-second spot on Jon Stewart’s “The Daily Show” and “The Colbert Report,” Comedy Central’s two award-winning comedy-cum-news shows — some of the nation’s most watched, most influential, and most irreverent TV shows. This will be the first atheist/freethinking commercial aired on either program.

Our ad will broadcast live on both programs on Thursday, May 22, once per show, then again when the show is rerun two hours later on Comedy Central. "The Daily Show" live broadcast starts at 11 P.M. Eastern, followed by “The Colbert Report” at 11:30 P.M. Eastern.

Watch the sneak preview today (just click on the video link or here). Then help FFRF make some TV history with your tax-deductible donation today!

We are airing our Ron Reagan ad on a national vehicle so that you and every member in the country can view it live. Your donation to FFRF’s Advertising Fund will make that possible, we hope, as well as to run the ad later on as many venues as we can— using remnants, regional advertising on national shows, and, if we raise enough, “60 Minutes” and “The Rachel Maddow Show.”

FFRF is honored to have Ron Reagan’s support in our work to promote reason, freethought and secularism. And we’re honored to have your support, too. 

With warmest thanks,

Co-Presidents
