Nickelodeon Slime for Kids

But it was another type of slime that hit the Nickelodeon screen during a segment of Nick News, hosted by Linda Ellerbee. Presented as a news program for kids, the recent episode “Rebels with a Cause”, featured, among others, two anti-war teens.

Has it come to this now or is it a continuation of the Bert and Ernie rumors?

Yay, Communist propaganda for the little kids.

This show is moonbat propaganda all the way. My son happened upon it one day when Linda had Slick Willie on and he said it was unbelievable.

This program has been around for eons. I swear they had a segment on homosexual stuff like, ten years ago. This isn’t really news. Those of you who have kids, I have but one suggestion: smash the TV. Most of them are not capable of mentally seeing the subtle brainwashing.

Dunno about Bert and Ernie, but I saw an episode about three years ago (when my son was about three) in which they were showing a musical montage about families. Lots of diversity — mom & dad with their kids; mom and her kids; dad & dad and kids. Just another normal variation on the family theme. We haven’t allowed Sesame Street on ever since.

I’m sure other Freepers could give lots of other examples of PBS’ liberal bias.

Unfortunately, it’s apparently no longer sufficient for PBS to educate kids about colors, numbers, the alphabet. Now they want to push a social agenda — sometimes overtly, sometimes subtly.

In my day, we used to watch Electric Company with Rita Moreno jumpstarting the show with her “Hey you guys!!!!” yell. Nowadays? She’d be censored by PBS for her insensitively patriarchal male-centric use of the word “guys.” Sigh.

Happily Nick can be blocked. Do it then contact some of their best sponsors.

Viacommie still gets your cable/satellite dollars even if you aren’t watching. Appeal to your congresscritter that you want to have to OPT IN on digital broadcast programming rather than OPT OUT.

PBS has no detectable leftist bias? Either you haven’t been watching very carefully, or your PBS is beamed in from a different plant than mine. For example, Sesame Street displays same sex “partners” as being examples of “families.”

My kids don't watch Sesame Street. They watch Super Why, Word Girl and Curious George. To my knowledge George has not yet stumbled upon a gay bathhouse, nor has there been any crap about global warming, which my 6-year old already knows is nonsense. They also watch "How It's Made" on Discovery, which my son absolutely loves.

Simon & Schuester who put out Mrs. Bill Clinton’s autobiography with a questionable $8million advance paid in the brief window between being ELECTED to the Senate and being sworn INTO the Senate where such a payment would’ve been considered “unethical”.

If you recall, Newt Gingrich received such an advance before becoming Speaker, and Adam Clymer and others made it their first question at every single press meetings, relentlessly dogging him about it. When Hillary got it, the MSM was totally silent.
