WILL to air Buster episode

February 2nd, 2005 | by aobaoill |

My local PBS affiliate will be one of those airing the ‘Buster’ episode pulled from nationwide distribution by PDS. (Disclosure: WILL-TV, like the WILL radio stations, is run by a unit of the College of Communications at UIUC, in which I am a student, and I’ve previously worked within WILL-AM).
For those who missed it, the episode will feature, in part, a family that includes a lesbian couple. Shock! Horror! WILL is to be commended in not bending to the censurious furore – the incoming US Secretary of Education, whose department part funds the series which is specifically meant to deal with issues of diversity, is among those who have condemned the episode.
