NOTE: As one that worked in the radio industry and still produces radio commercials, I found this to be a very interesting article. I encourage you to not only read it, but listen to both radio commercials (links are in the article), and make your own decision. Feel free to post your thoughts by clicking "comments" below. By the way, my thought (for what it's worth) is that the phrase made it sound as if the actors were "chosen by God". What do you think?Radio Disney was to broadcast a radio spot for Promenade Pictures, makers of the film "The Ten Commandments," but the company sent an e-mail earlier this month instructing that the phrase "chosen by God" be stripped from the script.
"Our BS&P [Broadcast Standards and Procedures] said Both scripts need to include the studio mention and omit the following line: CHOSEN BY GOD.... Please let me know if you have any questions," reads the e-mail, sent Oct. 2 to Promenade media buyer Casey Baker by Radio Disney Network sales associate Jason Atkinson.
