Vulgarizing Young Minds
Jim Henson ProductionsTM
Charles H. Rivkin, President

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
