Oh really? 
An ABA spokesperson told radioinfo:
The Act requires that political matter broadcast at the request of another person be appropriately 'tagged'. It is the broadcaster in the first instance who makes the assessment of whether the material being broadcast is 'political matter' broadcast at the request of another person.

It's up to FreeTV if it's political matter or not in spite of them trying to play it off as it's fault of BSA for this.
The father's day commerical is not political at all and it's appropriate for the holiday. That's the truth. Someone at FreeTV likely knew of the group or was bothered by the commercial so they hit 'em with the tag bs after Dads4Kids turned in their ad for broardcasting in order to stop/censor the ad altogether. Also, Dads4Kids stated that they don't have the resources to recut the ad to include the tag. FreeTV could just the ad run as is if they wanted to since it's up to them if it's a political matter or not but nope they're acting like the stereotypical leftist trying to shut down opposing points of view from having a platform to speak. Hell, ya guys got your own stormtroopers (but they wear all black) running around attacking and disrupting any notable person of the right from speaking at colleges and at rallies.

So, FreeTV wanted the ad removed, which is why they asked to add a disclaimer, to which the group pulled the ad itself. What a cunning ploy. I guess it's too much to ask that a political group running an ad about itself disclosed they are a political group. It seems to me quite ridicolous that someone with the aim of "censoring" would even consider running the ad in the first place. I eagerly await your conspiracy theory explaining why.
Once again, this marketing is very easy to spot: nobody is reported as having complained about the ad, and the group itself somehow closed its site and Facebook page before receiving any complaints. If their story was truthful, surely that would have had happened after complaints had been made.
I know you enjoy squaring off against imaginary opponents, but I'm telling you, you are wasting your time. You aren't even in the right time zone to net these guys a profit.
P.S. Wow, you really want someone to hear how pissed off Antifa makes you, don't you? Try and be subtle at least.

The ad was a perfect father's day commercial. FreeTV disagreed with the commercial or the group itself. Either way they used a rule they didn't before to shut down the father's day commercial for father's day. They only had to delay it to fuck up the timing for the ad. It's a way to censor without openly doing it. None of this would have been a issue if they just played the ad. Anyone with some common sense realizes that commercials are not representive of the channel they air on and disclaimers in general are redundant.
Pissed off? That's wishful thinking right there.
You mistake me on antifa. I depise the idiots who make up it's ranks and their actions. Their whole cause is pointless because there's no "fascists" around. They are just using their slogans as a justification to attack and bully people who they disagree with politically. They are bigger hypocrites than BLM. The only positive side to them is that they are a blessing in disguise for the right. In that sense, they make me very happy.
