Video Of The Day: Immigrant Journey


A powerful ad that didn't appear in its entirety during the Super Bowl was the immigration ad sponsored by 84 Lumber showing a mom and her young daughter making a dangerous trek to the southern U.S. border. The right-wing xenophobes at the Fux Channel decided it was "too humane" "too controversial" to run during the most-watched sporting event in America. Here it is in its entirety, and bravo to 84 Lumber for producing it (the production values are stunning, too) and paying a lot of money to air it.

Ah, yes, the smell of censorship in the morning.
