From The Washington Times, clear-cut dhimmitude and political in-fighting on the American airwaves, this time from PBS:

The producers of “Islam vs. Islamists” say their taxpayer-funded film has been shelved by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) and the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) in “an ideological vendetta,” and because the production team includes conservative columnist Frank Gaffney Jr., founder of the Center for Security Policy.
“This is a well-documented, textbook case of the abuse of taxpayer funding by elements in the public broadcasting system to advocate their agenda and ensure that people who have different agenda don’t get on the air,” Mr. Gaffney said yesterday. “The public ought to be allowed to see a film which PBS doesn’t want them to see.”
His partner Martyn Burke also accused CPB and PBS of stifling the film “on political grounds.”
CPB says the film simply needs work but stands a chance to be aired eventually as a “stand-alone” program in the future. ” ‘Islam vs. Islamists’ has not been canceled. It is a work in progress,” said CPB spokesman Michael Levy.

Does any of this sound familiar? It should. But don’t mind me. Keep going about your lives as if Islam isn’t a threat in the United States. It’s all just “terrorists”…
