U.S. District Court orders Washington's Metro to display WallBuilders' Christian ads, ruling transit agency violated free speech.

A U.S. District Court ruled that Washington's Metro must display ads from a Christian group, WallBuilders, which it had previously rejected. The court found that the D.C. transit agency violated the nonprofit's rights to free speech. The ads, featuring paintings of America's Founding Fathers with the word "Christian?" imposed over them, were initially rejected due to guidelines prohibiting ads that influence public opinion on varying issues and promote or oppose religion.
