Anti-trans cartoon ads hit Anchorage airwaves


The owner of a day care could be jailed for refusing to hire a man wearing a dress, according to a new cartoon advertisement that aims to persuade voters in Anchorage, Alaska, to oppose Proposition 5, which would add sexual orientation and gender identity to the city’s non-discrimination ordinance. The Yes on Proposition 5 -- One Anchorage Campaign said the ads were offensive, and called for their removal from the air.
