Girl Scouts of America demotes Punk Rocker Joshua Ackley, of The Dead Betties

Joshua Ackley, spokesperson and blogger for Girl Scouts of America has lost his face forward position, following the complaints of mothers about his night job.  The Daily Mail says that he will remain working somewhere in the press department, in a position with less visibility.  His name has been removed from the press contact page.

Ackley recently resurrected his band, The Dead Betties, of the Homopunk genre, known for videos and lyric content which many found disturbing.  Worry among the scout moms was that, with this stuff on his mind, he’s  not the person to be interacting with the girls, or representing the scouting organization.
