PBS Internal Memo Tells Affiliates to Stonewall Protesters

A source at PBS sent us this confidential internal memo on Friday. The memo is an instruction sheet that PBS's national office has dispensed to their affiliates to instruct them as to how to deal with the thousands of people who have called or written them to protest the anti-father documentary Breaking the Silence. As you'll notice, the common theme of this memo is to stonewall protesters.

As you may know, a men's and fathers' issues columnist named Glenn Sacks has asked his readers to contact PBS and member stations regarding BREAKING THE SILENCE, which is scheduled to air tomorrow, October 20. Mr. Sacks believes that this documentary on domestic violence is unfair to fathers. His call to action can be found at http://www.glennsacks.com/pbs/.

In order to prepare you for any phone calls, letters or email you might receive, we have provided in this document an array of materials.

This is AMAZING. I called PBS last week, and I THOUGHT the guy who took my call was reading from a script!

See the link for the original memo - and call your local PBS station to protest the anti-father film "Breaking the Silence". Info about that can be found at Glenn sacks' site: glennsacks.com

In genius Liberal Land, we've never "broken the silence," even after fifty years of Leftist propaganda concerning the evils of family life.

It just goes on and on and...

[calrighty]

ON?

[Reactionary]

On?

The evils of men, the oppression of women, of patriarchy, of the entire structure of bourgeois family life.

The feminist spew never ends.

Has anyone seen this movie or are we just assuming it's "anti-father?"

[gidget7]

"The purpose of the film was to chronicle the impact of domestic violence and children and the recurring failings of family courts across the country to protect the children they are meant to serve."


I agree, so why isn't the documentary about the courts allowing homosexuals to adopt/raise children? That is where these liberals should be focusing, but noooooooo that's not promoting the agenda!

I posted that too. This thread is about the PBS memo, the other is general about the protest.

PBS is a public entity funded by taxpayer dollars and therefore is required to serve the public. This does not include stonewalling.

Who the hell watches PBS anyway?
