..but keep in mind it's not just schools who propagandize....
..it's coming from all quarters and our kids are in the cross-hairs.
Our kids mindlessly sit in front of the tube...it's their pablum, their pacifier, their babysitter...
..propaganda, you bet!--It's not just from schools anymore.
I realize that. And I agree with you on the general subject. Propaganda comes in many forms. Of course. And movies and TV are rife with propaganda. But I guess it gets down to how you define the word. To me there's a difference between "bias" and "propaganda". Bias is a political outlook, a political point of view, and in that sense, W&G definitely has a bias. Propaganda, on the other hand, has a specific political goal. A story can be biased, and still be a good story. But once you start writing propaganda, the story goes out the window. In W&G, in my opinion, the story is not out the window. It's biased, but not propaganda.
Guenevere, last night I saw my first full episode of this show. In the past I only watched snippets.
I realized last night that the two characters I liked in this show are the two women, Grace, and the ditsy rich chick.
As for the gay stuff: there was a scene in last night's episode in which one of the gay guys (not Will) approaches a teenage boy in a bowling alley, mistakenly thinking the boy has contacted him for help in "coming out". When the gay guy asked the teenage boy "are you gay", I positively cringed.
I take back my defense of this show. At the very least, this should be moved to cable and off the networks. This show is pushing a gay agenda.
You are right. I was wrong.
