DUQ Says Go Away Planned Parenthood
J.J. Jackson* | October 18, 2007
WDUQ has caused quite a stir among liberals here in Pittsburgh by refusing underwriting support from Planned Parenthood on the basis that the organization does not hold the values of those that own the station at Duquesne University. Namely the Catholic Church.
Liberals are whining and complaining that it just isn’t right. You know, that the Catholic Church would not want to promote the largest murderer of children in the United States.
The move has caused consternation because DUQ is usually thought of as a “public” radio station because it broadcasts NPR programs. Lots of liberals are complaining that they had no idea that the station was owned (in actuality) by the University and hence the church that owns the university. This of course has lead to shock and outrage because the left often thinks that radio stations and other private individuals should be required to air their messages and promote their agenda.
Sorry folks, it simply doesn’t work that way!
Typically however, liberals are trying to put pressure on the station to reverse the decision. Marxists like Rep. Frankel D - Squirrel Hill have called on the station to change course and reaccept the ads even though they represent an organization that does things the Catholic Church abhors. So much for their vaunted belief in the “separation of Church and State”!
When they aren’t getting what they want all bets are off and agents of “the State” will be sure to tell even a church what to do.
