ABC Means?

ABC TURNS PROGRAMMING OVER TO OBAMA; NEWS TO BE ANCHORED FROM INSIDE WHITE HOUSE
Tue Jun 16 2009 08:45:10 ET

On the night of June 24, the media and government become one, when ABC turns its programming over to President Obama and White House officials to push government run health care -- a move that has ignited an ethical firestorm!

Highlights on the agenda:

ABCNEWS anchor Charlie Gibson will deliver WORLD NEWS from the Blue Room of the White House.

The network plans a primetime special -- 'Prescription for America' -- originating from the East Room, exclude opposing voices on the debate.

The Director of Communications at the White House Office of Health Reform is Linda Douglass, who worked as a reporter for ABC News from 1998-2006.





So, ABC is basically providing President Obama a free commercial to promote his latest attempt to intrude farther into everyone's lives and pocket books.

Notice in reading the article, no attempt at balance by presenting people from the opposing view points.

I guess I know what ABC means now....it is The All Barack Channel.
A slightly less polite way of saying it would be The All (up in) Barack Channel, of course, I always try to be polite.
