Als Antwort auf: ... und aus deiner Stimme ein ganzer Chor. von Sam am 21. Dezember 2005 18:14:

The PBS letter also contained face-saving language defending Breaking the Silence. We had suspected that this would happen, as it is usually the case in such matters. We also expected that PBS's lawyers would not want PBS to admit to anything that could be used against them in the legal action they are currently facing over the documentary.

Unfortunately, a few activists have focused on this face-saving language and missed the real significance of PBS's statement. We asked for a chance to come on one of PBS's shows and present our side of the story. Instead, PBS is commissioning a new documentary on the subject. To do this in response to a protest is a rare concession. The owner of a film production company wrote to Glenn that PBS's action is "absolutely unheard of. In more than 25 years in and around the news media and TV world, I have never seen this sort of retreat by a broadcasting entity." [...]

We've said from the beginning that we're not out for blood, we only want balance. PBS's review and statement indicates that we will be receiving the balance we requested. We will, as the saying goes, "trust but verify," and monitor that PBS will indeed follow through on the stated premise of the new documentary it promises.
