I really wish that news affiliates would stop referring to a place they call "West Ambler" it is not in Ambler, it is Whitpain. It's been going on for years and no matter how many times it is bought to their attention, it is ignored. Shouldn't news organizations at least try to be accurate when reporting a story?

The same goes for any address that simply has a post office address of AMBLER. More times than not it not even Ambler at all, but right away the headlines will read Ambler. I feel the the headline should be more accurate with that too! To many people start to label Ambler, cause thats all they read.
