I guess the First Amendment isn't any good any
more in the United States—at least, not to some people. Emily
Miller, reporter for Fox affiliate WTTF spoke to a pro-gun group and
criticized gun control. The Coalition to Stop Gun Violence (CSGV)
wants her FIRED for that. They say she “violated “journalistic
ethics” by taking sides. “Citing the Society of Professional
Journalists (SPJ), CSGV asserts that Miller should be fired from her job on
the grounds that journalists should “act independently” by
avoiding “conflicts of interest, real or perceived.” Strange
that an outfit that “takes sides” every day should want her
fired for doing so IN PRIVATE, not on the pages of a newspaper or on
camera at Fox. As an American citizen, she is entitled to have her
own opinion on things, and say so as ;long as it's not part of a news report. Something CSGV doesn't want to allow. I guess
they think they're the only people who can spout one-sided lies as
NEWS in the media. (Daily Caller)
