It's a growing trend in entertainment: concerned groups not even waiting until something is released to make it a battleground Neal Gabler, author of "Life the Movie: How Entertainment Conquered Reality," said CBS' decision was unhealthy for democracy He is married to the outspoken liberal Barbra Streisand, which drew complaints from some conservatives Supporters of the former president, who suffers from Alzheimer's Disease, said there's no evidence he said that Showtime and CBS are both owned by Viacom, which is anxiously awaiting federal action on rules to restrict ownership of local TV stations Some advertisers might have been scared by the controversy, but many would have been attracted by the prospect of big ratings, he said The film had been scheduled to air Nov " Ironically, CBS' decision came two days after the network's 75th anniversary special, which included a skit by the Smothers Brothers poking fun at CBS for firing them more than 30 years ago because of their political content In a portion of the script published in The New York Times last month, Reagan was depicted as uncaring and judgmental toward people with AIDS "All of the special interest groups can say, `look, we got the Reagan docudrama off the air D "This was a left-wing smear of one of the nation's most beloved presidents and CBS got caught," said Brent Bozell, founder of the Media Research Center CBS attempted to edit the film to remove offending passages, but gave up Without changes, Showtime should remind viewers every 10 minutes that the movie is fictional, he said 16 and 18, in the heart of the November ratings sweeps Viacom needs help from Republicans in the White House and Congress who might not like seeing Reagan portrayed negatively, Chester said Another precedent came in 1979, when CBS pulled a comedy series about a black congressman after complaints by some actual black politicians who had seen a screening, said TV historian Tim Brooks " But conservatives said it was a question of accuracy James Brolin portrayed Reagan CBS believed it had ordered a love story about Ronald and Nancy Reagan with politics as a backdrop, but instead got a film that crossed the line into advocacy, said a network executive who spoke on the condition of anonymity "I said to Nancy, they don't like dad, but they hate you," Reagan said Tuesday on ABC's "Good Morning America "What they've told us now is that a very small group of people have censorship power over the broadcast networks " Producers Zadan and Meron noted that CBS had approved their script "We believe it does not present a balanced portrayal of the Reagans for CBS and its audience," the network said in a statement Tuesday "In doing so, they clearly caved in to the political pressure , said CBS' decision "smells of intimidation to me Republican National Committee Chairman Ed Gillespie said putting the movie before a smaller audience on Showtime doesn't address accuracy concerns " The CBS decision "gives new hope to all of the people who don't like what they see on entertainment television," said Robert Thompson, head of the Center for the Study of Popular Television at Syracuse University Based on snippets of the script that had leaked out in recent weeks, conservatives, including the son of the former president, accused CBS of distorting the legacy of Ronald Reagan Although disappointed that CBS won't air it, "we are excited that Showtime has agreed to broadcast it and the public will have a chance to judge `The Reagans' on its own merits The chairman of the Republican National Committee wrote to CBS President Leslie Moonves, asking for historians to review the movie, and the conservative Media Research Center asked advertisers to consider boycotting the film What's next?" â€â€?â€â€?â€â€? Associated Press writers Alan Fram and Lynn Elber contributed to this report The former president's son, radio talk show host Michael Reagan, said he had seen eight minutes of movie highlights and Nancy Reagan was depicted as basically running the White House CBS faced pre-broadcast pressure earlier this year from Jewish groups concerned about its miniseries about Adolf Hitler "They made a business decision," he said The movie was made by producers Neil Meron and Craig Zadan, who also made "Martin and Lewis" for CBS After some changes were made to the screenplay, the Hitler miniseries aired in May to middling ratings The miniseries became a hot topic on talk radio and the TV news networks There was also a concern about its depiction of Nancy Reagan Reagan Miniseries to Air on Showtime Nov 4, 6:21 PM EST Capping an extraordinary conservative furor over a movie virtually no one has seen, CBS scrapped plans Tuesday to televise "The Reagans" and decided to shunt it off to the Showtime cable network instead Failure to enact such changes could cost Viacom millions of dollars, said Jeff Chester, head of the Center for Digital Democracy, a communications lobbying group While CBS said it was not bowing to political pressure, critics said that was exactly the case, and worried about the effects of such pre-emptive strikes on future work " CBS said its decision to cancel the movie was "based solely on our reaction to seeing the final film, not the controversy that erupted around a draft of the script Actor Mel Gibson has been skirmishing with Jewish groups over his Biblical epic, "The Passion of Christ " It's not likely CBS faced much pressure from advertisers, said Brad Adgate, analyst for Horizon Media, an ad-buying firm " Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle, D-S "CBS, in pulling this film, did incredible harm, much more harm than they could ever have done in making the film," Gabler said "They that live in sin shall die in sin," Reagan's character tells his wife as she begs him to help AIDS victims 16-18 Only 18 percent thought it was an illegal act " The AP-Ipsos poll of 1,000 adults was taken Feb Nearly 80 percent of respondents said it's a waste of money to investigate "But an investigation is a waste of money com/ap ipsos "They need to clean up television generally," said Michael Zannella, a 70-year-old retiree from Wheatfield, N An Associated Press poll found 54 percent of those surveyed said they thought the act, in which singer Justin Timberlake snatched off part of Jackson's bustier and revealed her breast to millions of television viewers was bad taste Recent polling found a solid majority â€â€? about three fourths â€â€? who say they would support stricter rules on nudity and sexual content on regular television channels Despite limited public concern about the incident, there is evidence of public support for government action to clean up regular television channels , in the central part of the state Republicans were twice as likely as Democrats to favor an investigation The Federal Communications Commission is investigating whether the broadcast violated federal indecency laws "That one incident at the Super Bowl is nothing compared to what's on television all the time A fourth of those in the poll said the act was neither in bad taste nor illegal "I can see how parents wouldn't want their children to see it," said Diana Foster, a 50-year-old resident of Nicholas County, Ky It has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3 percentage points Poll: Janet Jackson Act Not Federal Case Feb 21, 11:49 AM EST Most Americans think the exposure of Janet Jackson's right breast during the Super Bowl halftime show was crass, but few believe it's a federal case According to the poll conducted for the AP by Ipsos-Public Affairs, the FCC ought to spend its time on other things Almost half of young adults between age 18 and 29 said the display was neither Young adults were less likely than other age groups to think an investigation was called for " In the AP-Ipsos poll, women were more likely than men to say the halftime show should be investigated, and whites more likely than blacks Sure it wasn't very nice, but they're using our tax money for this Unmarried men, people without college degrees and those who made lower incomes were more likely to think it was not in bad taste or illegal â€â€?â€â€?â€â€?
