Why Those “He Gets Us” Ads About Jesus Have Sparked Heated Debates
Kelsey Dallas of Deseret News reports that the “He Gets Us” Super Bowl ads promoting Jesus have faced backlash. Critics note that the self-proclaimed nonpartisan organization behind the ads has ties to conservative political groups and benefactors, including Hobby Lobby owner David Green, who has funded anti-abortion and anti-LGBT causes. Dallas reports that Jacobin, a left-leaning publication, and others have pointed out that “the ‘He Gets Us’ campaign isn’t as apolitical as it claims to be.”
