Retailer, Spencer Gifts (http://www.spencersonline.com/), has been accused of selling pornographic items to children. Channel 11, WTVD (http://abclocal.go.com/wtvd/) (serving North Carolina's Triangle area) news with Larry Stogner (http://abclocal.go.com/wtvd/bio?section=resources/inside_station/newsteam&id=5771806) will air the story Tuesday, Feb. 26th.
Because of the graphic nature of the merchandise sold in Spencer's, WTVD attorney's were unable to give permission for the segment to air at 6:00PM and it will air on the 11:00PM news, instead. Anti-porn activists are outraged at this, saying that if these items are available for purchase to anyone, the segment should be shown on TV news at the earlier hour. (If you do not live in the Triangle region, the segment will most likely be posted on the WTVD website (http://abclocal.go.com/wtvd/index).)
Conservatives argue that the items can be shown and sold to children at Southpoint, Northgate and Crabtree malls, in the Triangle area, and at 700 stores across the nation, but can't be shown on the Primetime news.
