Boycott ABC.

I will if you will, because this is outrageous.

Drudge:

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.

But wait, there's more:

The special edition of “Primetime” will air from the White House on Wednesday, June 24, at 10 pm ET. “Good Morning America,” “World News,” “Nightline,” and ABCNews.com’s “Top Line” will all feature special programming on the president’s health care agenda.

Diane Sawyer will have an exclusive interview with President Obama airing Wednesday on “Good Morning America.”

From Michelle Malkin:

On June 24, Drudge reports, the network will broadcast from inside the White House to air a propaganda special for Obamacare.

Opposing voices will reportedly be excluded. ABC News says “thoughtful” and “diverse” points of view will be allowed. In other words: Shills of all colors!

ABC: The All Barack Channel.

NTC News and Memeorandum have more reactions.

So ABC has dramatically emerged from the closet (not that we didn't already know they were in thrall to Obama), giving up all pretense of independence, objectivity, and balance. They're pleased and honored to serve as the main propaganda conduit for the Obama health care takeover, offering up four different broadcasts -- Good Morning America, World News Tonight, Primetime, and Nightline -- in obeisance to the Supreme Leader's agenda.

And what's truly beyond belief is ABC's refusal to include opposing points of view.

I don't feel like a valued ABC viewer. Do you?

What do you think are the chances of Charles Gibson assuming his condescending professor persona on this one? Right. Zero.
