Hulu Rejects Church's Ad Citing Violation of 'Religious Indoctrination'

Hulu reportedly rejected a Texas church’s local ad, claiming that it violated their policies on "Religious Indoctrination." First Liberty Institute issued a press release on Monday which accused the streaming service of unfairly rejecting a 22-second ad by the Hulen Street Church in Fort Worth. The ad promoted the church’s weekly Thursday services and was previously shared on Facebook, Instagram, and Google Ads. However, according to the firm, Hulu rejected the ad twice. "[I]t was determined that your ad was rejected for failing to adhere to our advertising polices regarding religious advertising, specifically citing Religious Indoctrination due to asking viewers to attend Thursday services," the rejection read.
