NBC says take your thanks and shove it!

I guess I am going to have to jump on the bandwagon criticizing NBC for it's failure to run the Thank You ad from a group called Freedoms Watch. I have seen the commercial on Fox.

Here is the ad that NBC doesn't want you to see.



NBC claims it won't run the ad because it "is of a controversial issue". If you watched it did you think it was controversial? What NBC finds controversial, as Scott Johnson points out at Powerline, apparently is that NBC claims it is because the last frame of the ad contains the web site of the group Freedom Watch. Why should it matter? I think it is NBC's refusal to support the war.If they are the group footing the bill and putting together the ad then they are right to take credit for it.

And in fairness in giving credit where credit is due, here is an entry from diarist over at the Daily Kos thanking the Army for help she received in getting a loved home for an emergency.
