THE REST OF THE STORY:
Outrage: NBC has rejected a TV ad by Freedom's Watch, a conservative group that supports administration policy in Iraq that asks viewers to remember and thank U.S. troops during the holiday season.
NBC said it declined to air the ad because it refers to the group's Web site, which the network said was too political, not because of the ad's message.

As part of a new community initiative called “Eye on the Future,” WWJ-TV will provide programming and initiatives that offer a spotlight on how Michigan can move forward in this ever changing world.
On Sunday, December 16th at 11pm following the finale of “Survivor: China,” WWJ-TV is proud to premiere the first “Eye on the Future” special: a three part series that examines Michigan’s economy and future and its potential connections with China in “Building Bridges: From the Great Lakes to the Great Wall.”
Shot in stunning high-definition and hosted by Carol Cain, Community Affairs and Editorial Director of WWJ-TV, “Building Bridges” leads us on a journey to see how the Chinese have built one of the most explosive economies on the planet and how the economic growth in China could help position Michigan for future growth.
Ms. Cain interviewed a number of experts to offer the most comprehensive, eye-opening report to date on this issue. She traveled extensively throughout China and Michigan to see firsthand how bold pioneers in business and education are laying the groundwork for future prosperity in Michigan. A partial list of her guests is included on page two.
“Building Bridges” features exclusive interviews with virtually every local business leader and decision-maker who will play a part in Michigan’s economic expansion. From government officials to business CEO’s, automotive executives to union leaders, Ms. Cain leads a very balanced discussion on this important topic.
“This issue is vital to everyone in Michigan,” said Trey Fabacher, Vice President and General Manager of WWJ-TV and WKBD-TV. “In just a few short years, there won’t be a business or family not affected in some way by economic changes outside the USA. Carol has used her extensive relationships and experience as a journalist to produce a truly riveting and informative special series.”
Part two airs Tuesday, December 18th from 6pm to 6:30pm. The series wraps up on Wednesday, December 19th from 6pm to 6:30pm.
