Here's something printed in very small print at the bottom of an unusual ad for a PBS program, which appeared this morning in the front section of my local daily paper:
"Funding for Muhammad: Legacy of a Prophet has been provided by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, The David and Lucille packard Foundation, Arabian Bulk Trade, Sabadia Family Foundation, Irfan Kathwari Foundation, El-hibri Foundation, Qureishi Family Trust and many individual contributors."

Interesting. PBS doesn't generally buy print ads for their shows.

I would imagine funding for the ad came from one of those "exotic sounding" names they printed.

I guess they're hoping this puts an end to the millions upon millions of hate crimes we Americans are visiting upon our peace loving Muslim friends every day.

Interesting funding situation. The Packard Foundation, who has no issue with funding anything far left, and a bunch of ragheads.
