A friend send me this. I hope I'm not replicating something already posted:
NEW KIDS TV PROGRAM ON PBS FEATURES LGBT PARENTS PLEASE CALL-IN TO SUPPORT POSTCARDS FROM BUSTER, a new PBS program starring Buster
Buster, Arthur's best friend, made popular in the ARTHUR series. Each episode finds Buster in a new place, meeting kids from some cultural background, doing the things that kids do. One of the families that Buster visits is a same gender family in Hinesburg, Vermont. One mom has 2 kids and the other mom has adopted a Child. The kids are around 10 and 12 years old, and are typical, out-doorsy, Vermont, well-adjusted kids. This episode will air for the first time on February 2.
PBS gets a lot of its funding from the Department of Education, and as the day looms, folks at the DOE are getting a bit nervous about the reception this show will get. Please tell everyone you know in every state- whether they have kids or not - to tune into the show when it airs and to call and email their local PBS station to praise it. You know the other side will be calling with complaints from here to kingdom come. This episode is a break- through episode that is airing at a time when the backlash is gearing up, so all of your support will be greatly appreciated. Look for when this program airs in your area.
