One Million Moms, As Long As They're Not Lesbian Moms
From pressure group One Million Moms…
Alerting all parents! If "Good Luck Charlie" goes through with introducing LGBT content, then the floodgates will be opened for all programs on the Disney Channel – a trend that will be almost impossible to stop.
Disney Channel has very few sponsors and advertisers on its network. Care.com was the only Disney Channel sponsor that was promoted during the January 19, 2014, newest episode of "Good Luck Charlie." Care.com often sponsors programs on the Disney network.
An upcoming episode in this last season of "Good Luck Charlie" will feature a family with two moms, a first for Disney Channel. Because "Good Luck Charlie" is coming to a close, the characters are only expected to appear in one episode. However, one episode is enough, especially since the network repeatedly airs reruns of all its programs.
One Million Moms launched an email campaign in 2013 that urged Disney officials to abandon their plans to corrupt the children's network with LGBT content. However, Disney officials have not responded to the thousands of emails protesting their plans. Disney has decided to be politically correct instead of providing family-friendly programming. Disney should stick to entertaining, not pushing an agenda.
Conservative families need to urge Disney to avoid controversial topics that children are far too young to comprehend. This is the last place a parent would expect their children to be confronted with topics that are too difficult for them to understand. Mature issues of this nature are being introduced too early and too soon, and it is extremely unnecessary.
I know, I know, business as usual, why do I care? After all, they are also running a sponsor/advertiser boycott of ABC's The Fosters over, amongst other things, the appearance of a "transgender male teen", "lesbian moms" and "theft" and claim a 100% success on removing previous advertisers of the show.
But with the Disney Channel they don't have as many advertisers to contact, and it probably wouldn't make a difference if they did. They've tried pressuring Disney without success.
So instead they're, basically, panicking. Like Chicken Little, running around, saying that the lesbian sky is falling and alerting all parents to join them in this panic.
Although presumably not same-sex parents. Because the question that One Millions Moms fail to answer is if featuring same-sex parents on a TV show is pushing an agenda, then what about when a show features heterosexual parents? Isn't that just an agends they are somehow blind to?
There may be very little point in running these kind of articles. One Million Moms is on the wrong side of history but is unlikely to change their ways.
Thankfully, Disney seems just as stubborn. And One Mouse beats One Million Moms.
