'Torturing Democracy' is a 90-minute documentary about the Guantanamo Bay death camp. A marketing director for KBDI-TV, a PBS member station in Denver, calls the program "phenomenal."
Yet countless PBS stations from coast to coast are refusing to air the documentary until after Bush leaves office. Although 'Torturing Democracy' has been offered to individual stations since months before the election, the network itself won't even air it until after Obama is sworn in.
The delay is politically motivated. Not a surprise, considering such motivations have run rampant at PBS lately to appease the Bush regime. Maybe that's because the Bush regime proposed cutting off funding for the network if its programming wasn't more to its liking.
If Mister Rogers was alive today, his TV neighborhood would face the wrecking ball and be replaced by a fall-apart development.
