We know that, but does he also give reach-arounds too?

Then howzabout you quit wringing your hands and clutching your pearls (alternately) and actually dig into it?

I posted on this the first time around, but maybe I was too cute for the room, so I'll try it again: Anybody following the news out of the UK knows that the BBC, their public broadcaster, is being hammered over allegations that longtime DJ and kids' show host Jimmy Savile was a pedophile rapist of both girls and boys. The rightwing tabloids have been throwing up more allegations against other BBC personalities every few days - all of them gay, closeted and/or conveniently dead.

How big a coincidence is it that one of the better-known performers on public broadcasting in the US (and a previously-closeted gay man) is now getting similar accusations, a few weeks after the rightwing candidate for President targeted his show as an example of defunding public broadcasting?

I'm not much for conspiracy theories, but something about this really stinks. And it would be nice if a heavily gay-oriented newspaper with a Pulitzer to its credit and an activist as its editorial director did something other than go 'aw, damn.'

A character that is educational and positive as where Mr. Clash is unknown to almost everyone until this situation. There should be a separation between Elmo and Mr. Clash as soon as possible and Elmo should not be hurt by this but Mr. Clash should just move away from Sesame Street and never look back.
