National Geographic yellow Journlism?

Join oth­ers in decid­ing not to sup­port Yel­low Jour­nal­ism, it is not only wrong but it is a Lie,

Char­ac­ter assas­si­na­tion, will any­one stand up and defend Ben Franklin From the evil yel­low cow­ards that have moved to malign a man that gave more to this nation than many will even have the oppor­tu­ni­ty to do in a life time.

Cow­ards and liars are not writ­ers they are skunks that hide behind words.

In a news sto­ry that seems to just be beyond the pail as some would say it is appar­ent that in some cir­cles lies and sug­ges­tions make up good his­to­ry, per­ver­sion of his­to­ry is more like it,

Ben Franklin Secret­ly a Pirate?

You know what this I would expect to see on the cov­er of the Nation­al Enquir­er,
(a respectable pub­li­ca­tion com­pared to nation­al Geo­graph­ic, (alleged­ly)

How­ev­er, to see an arti­cle by By Patrick J. Kiger

Who makes some rather wild state­ments that tend to defy the read­ers imag­i­na­tion, in fact the term yel­low jour­nal­ism comes to mind quick­ly when read­ing this very alleged­ly prej­u­di­cial piece of yel­low jour­nal­ism.

The Author, (if you can call this fel­low that) goes on to talk about ten things, that sound realy ter­ri­ble all aimed at depict­ing one of the most well respect­ed men in Amer­i­can His­to­ry in a dim light.

It is an Amaz­ing thing to read the thoughts of an alleged twist­ed mind, but I thought it was impor­tant to under­stand what this fel­low thought he was doing sad­ly the dia­tribe was such a embar­rass­ment that I am tru­ly hor­ri­fied that any respectable pub­li­ca­tion would print it at all.

The author tries to twist the facts of his­to­ry to fit in with the idea that Ben Franklin was some­how a less than admirable man start­ing off with the most hor­ri­ble of truths, that Franklin him­self said that he was ter­ri­ble at arith­metic.

Real­ly, that is you best shot, my friends, I am hor­ri­fied at this evil prac­tice of
to smear a man who ded­i­cat­ed his life and his for­tune to help those who were less for­tu­nate than him­self, a man who was a great inven­tor and states­man.

Lat­er the arti­cle goes on to sug­gest that Franklin lived in Adul­tery and lived with a woman out of wed­lock, hav­ing chil­dren, out of wed­lock, frankly this is appalling and it will not stand.

Boy­cotts should begin against any com­pa­ny adver­tis­ing on this show which is sched­uled to air tonight in some mar­kets.

Per­ver­sion of his­to­ry is not tol­er­at­ed and liars and vil­lains will not be jus­ti­fied.
