PRINCETON — Signs urging residents to be on the lookout for NBC news chief medical correspondent Dr. Nancy Snyderman while she remains under an Ebola quarantine at her Princeton residence have been posted on town kiosks.

Though the signs include Snyderman's exact Princeton address and her kids' names, administrator Bob Bruschi said the town is viewing them "as a freedom of speech issue."

"We will not at spend any time or tax dollars taking them down unless they are defacing public" property, Bruschi said in an email Thursday.

The issue is not whether or not she knew that she was not infectious, as a medical professional. She had a duty to set an example and NOT to encourage others to ignore public health quarantine Then there is that damned entitlement attitude--that she simply would not be denied her favorite take out meal at her favorite restaurant.
