According to the radio news report I heard, their reasoning was that the
message was too similar to the story line of the miniseries, and they were
concerned people would not be able to distinguish the commercials from the
program. Faulty logic if you ask me, particularly since they also refused
to sell time to the same sponsor for Touched By An Angel.--
