Today is Election Day!
I'm completely stoked because so far, though it's early, McCain is fairing well. I know he'll win Missouri...my state. If not, I will be so disappointed in my people, hehe.
Anyways, I'm director of our morning show and I actually anchored today for election day. I got in huge trouble because I showed biased opinion toward McCain. In no way did I make rude or offensive comments toward Obama, I simply endorsed McCain.
I was told that I have to make a public apology tomorrow. Blah. Here's what I wrote for it:
CJTV is a nonbiased show and on yesterday's show I clearly displayed a favorable disposition to a candidate. Even though it was only done in humor and in no way did it disrespect any candidate-because I have a deep amount of respect for each-it's still not allowed. Certain rights are taken away from us when we enter school grounds, including freedom of speech. In no way was I trying to influence anyone or offend anyone. Please accept my apology because never again will I apologize for what I believe in.
I was proud of it, because if you have read anything about children's rights in schools, they almost completely disappear. I think I'm a little too self righteous but I don't want to apologize for exercising my voice.
