Editorial: Standing for the Pledge of Allegiance is not a condition of speaking. Even in Cicero.
Briefly

Cicero certainly merits plenty of scrutiny: Betty Loren-Maltese, the previous town president, was convicted in 2002 for attempting to steal $12 million from public funds as part of an insurance scam and sentenced to federal prison.
Standing for the flag or the pledge is not a condition of protected free speech, and it is not the role of government officials to dictate how journalists should exercise their First Amendment rights.
