Aaaaaaarrrrrrrrgggggggghhhhhhhh! Out of all the networks I certainly expect diversity from PBS. Ugh...I just want to skip forward four years and pretend like the second Bush term never happened.


Thanks for posting this.

Well, the site also has a pole which I voted on.
So far 41% think it is ok, 59% think it was wrong.
These people have the brains of an Ostrich, sticking there heads in the sand, "If I can't see it, it's not there." Of course I cose to say sticking there heads in the sand to avoid violating TOS.
Thanks Beth, for posting this.

~sigh. Guess PBS won't be getting any donations from me or my family in the near future.....


I felt the same way as you TiNG. I remeber growing up on Sesame Street, learning not only my numbers but a little bit of Spanish as well, yes it is a diverse station.


I remeber at one time our local PBS station had a program that ran one night a week called "In the Life" that featured different gay/lesbian couples and thier day-to-day lives. Has anyone else seen this show?

I was kind of hoping that by posting this article here, the poll results would change. I just took another look at the results and they're still about the same. arrrrrgh!
