Great Seal > Sightings > NBC NBC Disrespects the Great Seal NBC Nightly News – The Fleecing of America Logo MEMO to NBC: Please stop using the Great Seal as a logo for your "The Fleecing of America" segments. The emblem of the United States is not a monetary symbol. Its two sides were designed by our nation's founders to symbolize the idea and ideals – not the fleecing – of America. George Washington is also on the one-dollar bill. Would you use him to symbolize Americans being cheated out of their money? If you need an image from our currency that's relevant to the fleecing of America, then use the back of the $20 or $50 bill. Not only is it disrespectful to use the Great Seal as your Fleecing of America logo, it is stupid. On Oct. 11, 2007, right after you associated the pyramid & eye with Americans being fleeced by corporations, you ran a commercial for one of your major corporate sponsors, Fidelity Investments, whose logo uses the same imagery. Are you suggesting Fidelity Investments is fleecing us, too? And last summer you used the eagle side of the Great Seal for your Fleecing logo in a segment that was followed by a report about our national bird, the magnificent bald eagle being taken off the endangered species list. Is anybody at NBC paying attention? UPDATE: NBC may have gotten the message. Perhaps GreatSeal.com's phone call to Fidelity Investments helped. Back to Great Seal Sightings.
