THE DOUCHEBAG BIBLE
⏩Signed and Personalized with "Art"
The first episode of the 22nd series of children's program Arthur features the character Mr. Ratburn marrying his aardvark partner, Patrick. But APT (Alabama Public Television) instead ran an old episode and announced it had no plans to show the premiere.
Programming director Mike McKenzie said broadcasting it would break parents' trust in the network. In a statement, Mr. McKenzie said "parents trust that their children can watch APT without their supervision", and that children "younger than the 'target' audience" might watch without parental knowledge.
Substitute teacher Misty Souder told news website AL.com that she and her daughter were disappointed the episode did not run and had contacted the network about it. "I never thought I'd be going to battle for a gay rat wedding, but here we are," she said.
