CCA Calls For Potter Ban
The "nation's largest" conservative organization, the Christian Coalition of America, has called for a ban of Harry Potter books and movies after author J.K. Rowling's revelation last week that Hogwarts head wizard Albus Dumbledore is gay. CCA chairman Roberta Combs: "It's not a good example for our children, who really like the books and the movies. I think it encourages homosexuality. I would never allow my own children or grandchildren to read the books or watch the movies, and other parents should do so too."
Claiming 1.2M members, CCA trumpets themselves as the nation's largest conservative group, although others place their active membership at around 30,000. They are currently over $2M in debt and are being sued by numerous creditors. They no longer have any lobbyists in Washington, DC.
