Vulgarizing Young Minds

Jim Henson ProductionsTM
Charles H. Rivkin, President
1416 N. La Brea Avenue
Los Angeles, CA 90028

Dear Mr. Rivkin:

The vulgarizing of young minds and pandering to the lowest-common denominator as a "marketing methodology" is a tool employed by networks and production companies.

Henson Productions is making a political statement on this upcoming Christmas Special by featuring Snoop Doggy Dogg. In effect, this is your way of endorsing the entertainment industry's movement to aggressively pursue the "right" to have the absolute freedom to assault the young mind with violence, vulgar images, and lewd vocabulary.

Organizations that refuse to be "used" as the vehicle to generate vile material receive my respect, and patronage. Unfortunately, Henson Productions lacks the backbone or concern. Instead, Mr. Rivkin eagerly has jumped into the pimpin' mobile. "Anything for a buck," philosophy is why watchdog groups will continue to maintain a solid presence, and develop muscle.

Respectfully,

Patty Egerer

Misspelled Rivkin on the final line. I'm terrible at spelling but you should be aware of it before sending it out. That's all I will comment. :wink:

Uhhhmmm.. not to intrude, but what exactly do you think he's going to be doing on the show? Maybe you should have an advanced screening or something!

Like I argue in the other Snoop thread, its not Snoop Dogg's past or vulgarity that upsets me, its his lack of timeliness. Why cant they get really outdated stars like Bronson Pinchot and the cast of Full House? :wink:

Snoop's involvement is likely due to his publicist not the Henson or NBC folk shopping aroung for him. I'm surprised they couldn't get at least Billy Crystal or someone classic like that. And why isn't Jay Leno showing up? He'll do anything. LOL!
