Saluting the flag

cbs-sports-pulls-adI grew up during a time when we said the Pledge of Allegiance every day in school. Our parents may not have agreed with everything the government did or said – but we were all proud of our country.

So, this headline I saw in my Facebook feed this morning grabbed my attention. I really wondered what was so controversial. Silly me… it should have been obvious!

 

CBS Sports Rejects Ad Featuring Child Reciting Pledge Of Allegiance

The ‘offensive’ ad shows an adorable 4 year old girl (the owner’s granddaughter) reciting the Pledge of Allegiance. When she finishes, the ad cuts to the logo for a Real Estate company with a voice-over giving the company’s name and location….

Ummm..that’s it. Yes, really…

CBS Sports rejected the ad as being “too political”.  See what you think.
