I wonder if the stinker is going to go into direct sales. I just have this gnawing feeling that CBS wants to recoup its money off the hit piece and that, while they aren't showing it *now*, it could surface at another date. I hope not.

Sure they will. It will go to Show Time, then they'll probably put it on DVD at about $30 and call it the "banned" movie to make it more exciting.

Wait! Here's Mark (?) subbing for Rush and he says: The other networks will be screaming censorship.

He also has the head of the Media Research Center, Tim (?) on who says that it's probably the first time conservative pressure has been used. He also mentions that last night ABC had program on which denies the divinity of Jesus Christ.

He said that the letters to 100 possible sponsors from the Media Research Center, about the CBS movie, did NOT ask them to refuse to sponsor. It asked them to SEE the movie and then decide for themselves.

Tim says that Show Time should look at the movie before they accept it. And he mentioned the possibility of DVDs.

He also said that all of this will not change anything, and that the networks will continue bashing conservatives.

My summation is that our work is NOT finished.
