Lesbians are inappropriate for the target audience
Here's the Boston Globe's article on PBS's refusal to distribute an episode of "Postcards From Buster", a part animated and part live action children's show about families. The episode featured 2 lesbian couples and their children.This week, the new US secretary of education, Margaret Spellings, denounced PBS for spending public funds to tape an episode of a children's program that features lesbians. Spellings complained that the "Postcards" episode -- which is funded by the federal Ready-to-Learn program -- did not meet the objectives of Congress to "use the television medium to help prepare preschool age children for school."
