Houghton Mifflin’s Channel One Brings Execution Horror into the Classroom- see story from Commercial Free Childhood commercialfreechildhood.org/ The death of journalist James Foley is a tragic story and there’s no reason schoolchildren should be forced to see horrifying images of it. And yet, thanks to notorious in-school marketer Channel One News and its parent company Houghton Mifflin, that’s exactly what happened to millions of students around the country. Pictures of James Foley moments before his execution (and including the knife that killed him) were shown to 6th-12th grade students. And images of heavily armed militants were shown to 3rd-5th graders with a news report about the execution. As Jim Metrock perfectly explains in this video, if this is what Channel One did in the first week of its partnership with Houghton Mifflin, we should be extremely concerned about what’s coming next. https://youtube/watch?v=1FJc5QClj00
