Did anyone just see the disgraceful anti-American commercial on CNN?
http://www.unbrandAmerica.org ^

Posted on 07/04/2005 9:52:37 AM PDT by God luvs America

It has Jimi Hendrix version of the Star Spangled Banner in the background....the flag is waving and up comes the following messages, "Because our government has sold out to coporations"....."because conusmerism has become the new reilgion"...."because we forgot the real meaning of freedom"....as the rest of the flag comes into view the stars on the blue backdrop are replaced by corporate emblems.... brought to you by www.unbrandAmerica.org

ANSWER and other America-haters flew this flag daily at their RNC protests in New York City daily last September...

a truly disgraceful display of a desecration of the American Flag by CNN on Independence Day...

Perhaps the mentality of these ads is in sync with the people running CNN. Perhaps that's why their ratings been falling so much for so long, and why they are enduring severe layoffs right now. If you are watching, turn the channel (or just turn the TV off)

www.unbrandamerica.org?

Well, you gotta hand it to 'em. At least they didn't fall into the trap of registering their domain name under ".com".

However, in order to fight the branding of America, unbrandamerica.org must become a recognizable brand itself. Otherwise, it's never gonna leave a lasting impression.

What would you expect from the Communist Comunications Network ? Something patriotic ? Good grief I don't know anybody who watches CNN . Try Fox they had the Presidents 4th of July address (in KKK Byrd country) and got a very warm West VA. reception . My advice , stay away from CNN .

I think it's hilarious that adbusters.org is trying to get a catchy "brand" for it's socialist cause. Resulting in a more confusing "unbrandamerica.org" name that still routes through the old name.

Even More fun, in that there is celebration on their website that their ad would run in Wolf Blitzer's "Your World Today" between 12 and 1 edt July 4th..

Blitzer and crews have the day off, and it was international news. A tune out for most Americans. silly socialists..

I actually agree with them.

It's terrible the way corporations are running everything. They have too much power.

Corporations like the AARP, AFL/CIO, NEA, and the ACLU, for example.

Oh, they don't mean those corporations.

Nevermind.

Hey!! How come they're picking on GE twice?? The fools probably don't know that NBC is wholly owned.

"because we forgot the real meaning of freedom"

The Communist News Network overlooked interviewing our soldiers stationed in Iraqi and Afghanistan and asking what they're fighting for.

The irony is that the ingrates that produced that bilge and those that find it insightful/illuminating would never dream of fighting for the liberty that allowed them to produce it. Those actually fighting for our liberties are diametrically opposed to such sentiments.
