Just on ABC. Hope this link works:

If not, here's part of the story:

"Over the past weeks, ABC viewers across the country have been shown a graphic advertisement featuring images of aborted fetuses, as part of a campaign by antiabortion rights advocate and long-shot presidential candidate Randall Terry.

The ad, which has appeared on network shows such as “The View,” “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and “ABC World News Tonight,” has shocked viewers, who have taken to social media demanding to know why ABC would run it. Some local ABC stations report they have received many calls from upset viewers.

But the network said it has no say in the matter. Because Terry is a political candidate on the ballots in about a dozen states, ABC said that it is bound by Federal Communications Commission rules to air the ad, unedited. In addition to the graphic imagery, the ad includes photos of major media personalities and compares them to Nazi leaders and supporters."
