My Response to the DOC NYC Monday Memo "correction" I appreciate DOCNYC's efforts to clarify and agree, it's important to have the proper context. As stated in The Atlantic article, Break the Game was removed from the broadcast schedule with no replacement date, and deleted

So POV on PBS has asked DOCNYC to provide "broader context" for its newsletter item about PBS's decision to pull the trans-themed film BREAK THE GAME from its scheduled slot on Apr. 7. 1/

POV's executive producers, who declined to comment for my story in The Atlantic, now suggest this was just a normal bit of rescheduling-- of the sort that happens to "at least one film every season for a variety of reasons." 2/ theatlantic.com/culture/archiv…

The film's director, Jane M. Wagner, told me that POV's executive producers were explicit about the fact that her film had lost its premiere date for political reasons-- a fact they subsequently confirmed to her by email. 3/

PBS also pulled the website for the film from PBS.org, at least until shortly after I'd reached out for comment and the film was promptly rescheduled. Just to clarify, does this also happen to at least one film in every season for a variety of reasons? 4/4

The bullshit on display in the censorship of this film is baffling. PBS and POV should air this film and let this powerful story be seen by everyone. Props to Jane for getting this story out there.

Great thread here about PBS pretending they didn't pull Break the Game - The Movie from their broadcast schedule for political reasons.
