I don't know exactly what you are refering to, but an upside down flag is a sign of distress... so it wouldn't be out of line if they were flying it upside down right after 9/11.

Atlanta honor guard carried the Canadian flag into a world series game upside down.

Also note c, how do you think they are transferred to shops?

Anyway, the 'not touching the ground' of flags is an ancient relic from battlefields, where the flag was one of the most important things, and once the flag fell the battle was just about over.

Serena won her 4th consecutive major... That is pretty kick ass if you ask me.

As far as her sitting on the flag, blame the photographer who framed the shot.

agreed

Sorry I don't. She should have seen that flag and said No.

She just won a grand slam tournament and has taken about a gazillion photographs with a gazillion different photographers and interviewed with a gazillion different people since then. In all the excitement and whatnot, I really don't blame her for the mistake.
