NBC wins Freedom Watch tussle, despite righties' spin

NBC, after a battle with the right-wing group Freedom Watch, has decided to run their ad sending holiday wishes to the troops without the group's URL, the sticking point for the network.
It was NBC's decision that the URL makes the ad political. Freedom Watch removed the URL. The ad will run.

"We have reviewed and changed our ad standards guidelines and made the decision that our policy will apply to content only and not to a referenced Web site. Based on these amended standards the Freedom's Watch ad will begin to run as early as Sunday," NBC was quoted by the Associated Press

But righties, notably dumb cluck pseudo pundit Michelle Malkin, are spinning it as NBC did the dreaded flip flop.
So tell me Michelle. How does Freedom Watch caving in become a flip flop? Only you would draw a conclusion like that.
