An upcoming storyline involving a
lesbian couple has left the Disney Channel unsafe for children,
social conservative Janet Porter has warned.
The Disney Channel will introduce its
first characters next year during an episode of Good Luck Charlie.
In the episode, to be be broadcast during the sitcom's final season
early next year, preschooler Charlie (Mia Talerico) has a new friend
with two moms. The family comes over to the Duncans' home during a
playdate arranged by Amy and Bob Duncan (Leigh-Allyn Baker and Eric
Allan Kramer).
While the characters are only expected
to appear in this one episode and the storyline is secondary to the
plot, Porter told her radio audience that “there isn't much on the
Disney Channel safe for children to view.”
“Now, you can't trust the Disney
Channel,” Porter
said. “One of their more popular programs, Good Luck
Charlie, will in a few months be introducing a family with two
lesbian mothers. Caving in to pressure to include homosexual
characters in their programs, they plan to do this in the last
episode of what is scheduled to be the final season of the show.
Disney Channel Vice President Gary Marsh needs to hear from us. His
email address is gary.marsh @ disney.com. Politely let Mr. Marsh
know your objections to the bad plans for the Good Luck Charlie
program at gary.marsh @ disney.com. In fact, there isn't much on the
Disney Channel safe for children to view. More reason to steer your
kids elsewhere!”
