I also would like to express my support for a resolution and thank those 
who have already gotten the process moving forward. I want to clarify 
that it is not because I disagree with AEJMC playing a more active role 
in public discourse, but it is because this particular statement is not 
representative of AEJMC, is unfair, and does not rise to the threshold 
of public condemnation.

Regards,
David Oh

I find it inappropriate that the AEJMC leadership would think it acceptable to take a stand on an issue that's going to cause such contention.  If the leaders of the organization are trying to bring attention to AEJMC, this is not the way to do it.
