Ad Executive Disputes NBC Super Bowl Decision

Contact: Anne McGlone or Jane Schneider, 610-544-2468

VILLANOVA, Penn., Jan. 29 /Christian Newswire/ -- A newly released Catholic novel entitled, "Fatherless," is stirring discussion throughout the U.S. in light of recent publicity regarding the pulling of the contraception clause from the Economic Stimulus Package and the rejection today by NBC of a pro-life commercial for the Super Bowl.

Brian J. Gail, author of "Fatherless," (One More Soul Press) is defending his position on pro-life issues in the media, focusing on contraception in particular as being "ruinous to individuals as it is to their institutions--the family, the church, the nation."

Gail is a former college and semi-pro athlete, Madison Avenue adman, Fortune 500 senior executive, entrepreneur and CEO. As one of the original brain trusts for the initiation of HBO, an award-winning advertising executive and motivational speaker, Gail is using "Fatherless" as a springboard to challenge pro-death politicians and organizations to prepare for the "perfect storm," which he states is brewing in Washington and within the media.

In his new book, a provocative and compelling novel in which readers meet flesh-and-blood characters each striving to achieve the American Dream, the reader is introduced to the real facts about contraception, negated by the mass media since the 1960s. According to Gail, who quotes Dr. Peter Kreeft of Boston College, "the birth control pill has been proven more destructive than a nuclear bomb."

Gail also cites a meta-analysis conducted by the Mayo Clinic in 2006 in which the news media ignored publicizing that "when young women have been on the pill for at least four years before their first full-term pregnancy, they have a 52 percent higher risk for cancer." Gail also points to Carl Djerassi, Austrian inventor of the pill, who recently told the press, "The pill has an abortifacient action which has been hidden from patients." Gail adds, "There is a debate about the carcinogenic nature of hormonal contraceptives, particularly the pill, which continues to be ignored."

"Fatherless" is the story of what Gail terms, a "Great Silence in the Church" and its devastating impact on faith and family, church and country. The U.S. divorce rate doubled within 10 years of the pill's introduction, according to Gail. The novel tracks the behind-the-scenes maneuvering required to introduce, then mainstream, hormonal contraceptives through the much anticipated opposition of the church. Gail is known for his confrontational approach in defending his views and certainly "Fatherless" is no exception.
