Morgan Freeman narrates Lawson ad [NC-04]
Raleigh News & Observer ^ | Nov. 1, 2010 | Rob Christensen

Actor Morgan Freeman is the voice that narrates GOP congressional candidate B.J. Lawson's latest TV and radio ads.

It is Freeman who says: “What is David Price afraid of?” He was referring to the Democratic congressman.

Lawson said he was inspired by Freeman explaining the importance of the founding documents in his narration of a video about the Declaration of Independence.

“Barbara Streisand wouldn't do this, but Morgan Freeman doesn't have a problem cutting ads against Washington insiders or he wouldn't do it,” said Martin Avila, Lawson's campaign manager.

Perhaps being around Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon has turned Morgan Freeman away from Marxist ideologies.

One of ‘The Best’ narration jobs that Morgan Freeman has ever done was a National Geographic documentary called, “March Of The Penguins”.

I think he does the voiceovers for the Visa credit cards. And to think it all started on The Electric Co.
