and let’s not forget the super duper fair and balanced Smithsonian instititue upon who so many impressionable young minds depend onm for information and who don’t have any agenda whatsoever (Please ignore the following paragraph- accusations about bias in S.I are all a figment of our imagination (and congress’ who incidently had to rule on the case)

““Such bias and mistreatment for religious views has happened to Dr. Richard Sternberg.5 Despite having two Ph.D.s in evolutionary biology, he was harassed and encouraged to resign from the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of Natural History because, as an editor, he allowed the publication of an article that was favorable to intelligent design. A recently released congressional investigative report6 described “compelling evidence that Dr. Sternberg’s civil and constitutional rights were violated by Smithsonian officials.” In addition, it was noted that “Given the attitudes expressed in these emails, scientists who are known to be skeptical of Darwinian theory, whatever their qualifications or research record, cannot expect to receive equal treatment or consideration by NMNH officials.””

Do you believe PBS will present a fair, accurate portrayal of scientists and their work? If not, why are you telling people to go there to learn about them?
