AMERICAblog: Because a great nation deserves the truth: "ABC/Disney may have killed new TV show because gay couple won and they didn't want to anger religious right

This is bad. The NYT article below provides a lot of evidence that the religious right got 'Welcome to the Neighborhood,' a reality TV show, killed before it even aired a single episode because ABC/Disney thought the religious right would pull its support for the movie Narnia if the gays were shown to win the reality show (the gay couple did win).
What's worse, a bit part of the religious right's problem with the reality show is that many of the neighbors of the gay couple in the show were quite homophobic Christians and by the end of the show they ended up loving their gay neighbors. The religious right objected especially to the fact that real Christians embraced their gay neighbors."
