ABC News Bans Flag Lapel Pins
WTF is this country coming to.
ABC News Bans Flag Lapel Pins...
I've Banned ABC At My House!!!
I just checked this on Snopes, who shows this as being true.
Unbelievable! My question is: Why haven't I heard of this before?

ABC News Bans Flag Lapel Pins The brass at ABC News issued orders forbidding reporters to wear lapel pin American flags or other patriotic insignia.
Their reasoning was that ABC should remain neutral about "causes".
Since when is support for preventing our death and destruction some sort of a cause?
Since when is patriotism to be discouraged.
I urge you to boycott ABC and its sponsors and affiliates.
Please forward this to as many as you can, put ABC in the Garbage Can!!!!

This happened almost 7 years ago.
They did for the same reasons my mom wouldnt let me wear red or blue inside of East St Louis...protection.
We are told not to advertise our nationality when we are off post over here (by the military) for our own protection.

I haven't watched ABC since the Hillary/Obama debate where Charlie asked BHO all those questions people hadn't told him the answer to.
Now I've got all the more reason to keep them off.

This reminds me of Peter Jennings, born and raised in Ottawa, Ontario, censoring Toby Keith's Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue at ABC's telecast of July 4th, 2002, the first Independance Day after 9/11.

And its sponsors and affiliates.
Do you have a list of sponsers?

Journalists are supposed to remain neutral as much as possible.
This is just an example of that.
They're supposed to report the facts, not serve as cheerleaders for the U.S.

I guess it would be ok to wear an ABC pin though.

Too bad that they abandoned that credo when Cheney/Rumsfeld/Wolfowitz were propogandizing you in late '02/early '03!

As a way of identifying themselves, yes.

I think this is a good idea.
It makes sense to me.
I don't get what the problem is.
