Boo!

On her way to her swearing-in, new U.S. Education Secretary Margaret Spellings is already spooking PBS by attacking that Buster episode that features a Lesbian couple. [More on Spellings here.]

Public broadcasting has always been a favorite target for righties in government. This, too, will pass, as it has before. But maybe it's time to restructure public media funding even more, and get the government out of it. While we're putting a stop to government agency funding of columnists and commentators.
