Popular Information: On October 3, the Florida Department of Health sent a letter to Mark Higgins, the General Manager of WFLA, Tampa’s NBC affiliate. The letter, sent by Florida Department of Health General Counsel John Wilson, claimed that airing the ad violates Florida law. Wilson cites Florida’s law against “sanitary nuisance,” which prohibits “the commission of any act… by which… the health and lives of individuals… may be endangered.” Wilson argues that WFLA’s decision to air the ad could “threaten or impair the health and lives of women.” Wilson advised Higgins that, now that he has been notified that the ad is creating a “sanitary nuisance,” WFLA must stop airing it within 24 hours. Failure to do so, Wilson writes, would be a crime punishable by up to 60 days in prison under Florida law. The letter was first reported by investigative reporter Jason Garcia.
