New Documentary: "The Flagmakers"

Among the world’s most recognizable symbols, the American flag is displayed on almost every public building and countless homes across the country. Have you ever wondered where all these flags come from -- and who makes them? The answer is in a new documentary, "The Flagmakers." Directors Sharon Liese and Cynthia Wade met factory workers who stitch stars and stripes for a living.
