"Photographer Quits Ford Board Over Liz Cheney Snub"
The Gerald R Ford Presidential Foundation has been accused of refusing to honor Liz Cheney with the Gerald R Ford Medal for Distinguished Public Service due to fears of reprisal from Donald Trump. The foundation's executive director cited legal risks and concerns about Cheney's potential presidential run as reasons for not honoring her. The decision has sparked controversy, with the foundation's board member and former White House photographer, David Kennerly, resigning and accusing the foundation of acquiescent behavior and missing a critical opportunity to support Cheney's defense of democracy.
