Too much un-PCness.

[QUOTE]“Welcome to the Neighborhood,” an ABC reality series that pushes hot buttons of racism and anti-homosexuality, was pulled by the network before its debut.

Each family initially wants someone similar to them — white and conservative.

Instead, they must choose from families that are black, Hispanic and Asian; two gay white men who’ve adopted a black child; a couple covered in tattoos and piercings; a couple who met at the woman’s initiation as a witch; and a poor white family. [/QUOTE]

So apparently this group: "The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation" has the power to censor Hollywood material? Are there any other groups that control Hollywood's output or is it just the homos?

Fortunately All In The Family reruns are still on.
