Imagine for a moment, the leader of a country having sole access to a block of prime air time to push forward their agenda without opposing views. Include a facade of independent citizens, picked by the network with approved questions for this leader.  Imagine no more. ABC will be featuring President Obama, Wednesday, June 24th in a prime time NEWS special, “Questions for the President: Prescription for America” will air without a discussion or opposing opinions from the other side. This infomercial will advertise President Obama’s health care reform. ABC will also feature special programming touting the president’s health care agenda on “Good Morning America,” “World News,” “Nightline,” and ABCNews.com’s “Top Line”. Diane Sawyer will be interviewing President Obama exclusively on “Good Morning America.” Where is the journalism that is to be expected from ABC? Does ABC now cover only the side it deems important and present that as news? Is ABC the white house’s sole PR firm? ABC has rejected the RNC’s request to buy air time for a counter-program. "It is unfortunate -- and unusual -- that ABC is refusing to accept paid advertising that would present an alternative viewpoint for the White House health care program," said Rick Scott, chairman of Conservatives for Patients Rights. On Wednesday, June 24th, concerned KC citizens along with cities all over the country are joining together at ABC affiliates to stand up for Free Speech, Free Independent Press, and the Free Market Healthcare System. The rally will be heald at ABC-KMBC from 4:30 - 6 PM. For more information on the potential effects of President Obama's health care plan, go here. |
