For all who are collecting and saving all kinds of Q info, especially that regarding directly Q topics, I ran across this long link to a VOAT DEEP dig on the Laybournes. I am only able to do drive-by posting today, and I did want to get this out there for FReeQs to examine.

The Laybournes were mentioned in Q drop #3367

“KIT LAYBOURNE, WHY IS THIS CHILDREN’S ANIMATION PRODUCER ON EPSTEIN FLIGHT MANIFEST?”

Here is a little bit of stuff just to get you going from the VOAT link:

Creepy line from Kit Laybourne

This is just what I remember, I’ll check some of my stuff and see if I found anything else.
Edit: I believe that “safe spaces” were first pushed by nickelodeon, along with other progressive-facist concepts

A sense of community is still a part of their life. At their vacation house 45 minutes outside Telluride, the Laybournes built two oversized bunk beds in the living room, with curtains that can be drawn for privacy. (Their own bed is in another room, on rollers, railroad-style, so that they can sleep under the stars on the balcony at the end of the tracks.) Kit says weekend guests love the bunk beds: “There is something lewd about adults sleeping together in one room.”

Geraldine Laybourne, the educator who led Nickelodeon during its formative years, shares the story of her first visit to the set of Linda Ellerbee’s groundbreaking Nickelodeon news program. “Linda had posted a sign that said ‘Question Authority.’ I told her to take it down... and replace it with a sign that said ‘Question Everything.’”
When Nickelodeon was launched in 1990, the network issued a Declaration of Kids’ Rights that, in many ways, serves as the mantra that The Hooked Up Generation grew up with and that defines how they perceive their rights and entitlements.

Nickelodeon’s Declaration of Kids’ Rights June 7, 1990 In the course of history, it has become pretty clear that all people are born with certain inalienable rights; among them life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. But these rights haven’t always applied to kids. And that stinks! Now, 200 years after the creation of America’s Bill of Rights, this declaration proclaims to the world that you have rights too:

You have
the right to be seen, heard and respected as a citizen of the world.
the right to a world that’s peaceful and an environment that’s not spoiled.
the right to be treated with equality; regardless of race, religion, nationality, sex, personality, grades or size. the right to make mistakes without someone making you feel like a jerkhead.
the right to be protected from harm, injustice and hatred.
the right to an education that prepares you to run the world when it’s your turn.
the right to your opinions and feelings, even if others don’t agree with them.
So there!
[I had to edit the above “rights” because I could not cut and paste in the format they had written]

“When we first came up with the mission to connect with kids and connect kids with each other through the world of entertainment, we were less a cable TV network and more a philosophy,” Gerry Laybourne explains. “We had a wide range of TV including Linda’s news programs that covered topics like AIDS and the Gulf War, game shows like Double Dare, cartoons like Doug and Rugrats, live action shows like Clarissa and All That. We encouraged kids to try new things and supported them when they didn’t succeed.”

“Advertising for Prestige”: Publicity in Canada-United States Arctic Defence Cooperation

The joint Canadian-US Military Cooperation Committee was busy drawing up a grandiose plan for a continental air-defence system that was never instituted and the United States had sought permission to construct a chain of weather stations across the Canadian Arctic. The stations would be operated by the United States Weather Bureau, a civilian agency, but they were clearly military in intent.

This was something new for Canada. PRIOR TO 1940, THERE HAD BEEN VIRTUALLY NO CANADA-UNITED STATES DEFENCE RELATIONSHIP. American troops or installations, civil or military, on Canadian soil, or joint Canadian-American defence planning, would have been unheard of.

Canadian government’s effort to keep the details of the new Canada-United States defence partnership under cover was not helped by an incident that took place in late September 1946. In an off-the-record conversation with Time magazine correspondent Larry Laybourne during a visit to New York, Secretary of State Paul Martin said that the Canadian government faced important decisions in the field of joint defence and that he was “staggered by the expense of the installations which Canada would have to finance.” Martin was undoubtedly referring to the MCC’s soon-to-be-shelved air defence plans.

Laybourne then contacted American government officials to try to pry more information out of them but was told that any publicity regarding Canada-United States defence activities at that point would embarrass US Secretary of State James Byrnes, then attending the Paris Peace Conference. Laybourne chose to sit on the story but Time’s representative in Ottawa tried to get details about Arctic defence installations from the United States embassy there. At the same time Maclean’s reporter Blair Fraser and the Financial Post’s Wilson were also poking around. OTTAWA ASKED THE STATE DEPARTMENT TO HELP AND LAYBOURNE WAS CONTACTED A SECOND TIME AND TOLD TO BACK OFF BUT NOT BEFORE THE CANADIANS WERE REMINDED “WHERE THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR PUTTING TIME MAGAZINE ON THE TRAIL LAY.” THE AMERICANS MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN SO COMPLIANT IF THEY WERE NOT “ALIVE TO THE DANGER OF PREJUDICING CANADIAN GOVERNMENT DECISIONS BY UNFORTUNATE PUBLICITY.”

[texokie note: It should be recalled that the Smithsonian, where Lawrence Laybourne worked, is a long-known derpetorium.]
