There is an advocacy group out there that is looking to take it's commercials questioning Obama's health care proposals and air them nationally. They've found local affiliates to air them, but nationally, NBC and ABC have refused.
While NBC should not be a surprise to anybody, what I found most interesting was ABC's reasoning for it's declination. They say that they do not air paid messages of a "partisan nature". You mean, like when they parceled out their entire news division earlier this year for a night at the White House, so this administration could use the station's news air time for... advocacy of it's health care program?
Earth to Wikkipedia: if you are looking for a link to lay out as a primary definition for "moral relativism", feel free to start with this. The two examples are only a few months apart, surely that brings it above obtuse, no?
