January 2016 – In One Million Moms’ most recent campaign concerning ABC Family Channel’s Black Jesus, Prestone pulled its financial support immediately after hearing from 1MM. Prestone promptly responded to 1MM saying company ads on the show were an oversight. 

ABC Family Channel has finally announced it will change its name to Freeform in January. 

“1MM has warned parents numerous times that this so-called family channel was anything but,” said 1MM director Monica Cole. “The network has lost countless advertisers because of 1MM efforts, and 1MM has worked tirelessly urging them to take the word family out of their name.”
