Denver Station Broadcasts Controversial Buster In Prime Time

Not only is Denver public TV station KBDI airing the episode of Postcards from Buster that drew complaints from education secretary Margaret Spellings and caused PBS to cancel national broadcast, but the station is airing it in prime time. The broadcast will be followed by a public discussion of the show. “We’re not only pleased to offer the episode but want to use it as a basis for extended discussion on one of our signature, local prime-time public-affairs programs.”
