I’ve already ranted about this when it first happened. But here’s an interview with the Senior Editor of the show concerning the flap. I don’t feel like ranting right now, so I figured this was more suited to MPSIMS. Although, if I think about it too much, I might get angry and rant somemore. It seems the show is in danger of surviving this bit of ham-fisted “chilling effect” nonsense.
For those who don’t know, Postcards from Buster is a PBS show featuring an animated rabbit, Buster from the Arthur show, who travels the country with his airline pilot dad and creates a video postcard of the different families he meets. He’s met many different kinds of families; but when he visited a family in Vermont headed by two women, Sec. of Education Margaret Spellings threw a hissy fit.
