As some of you are aware, we broadcast a television show done by the National Geographic Channel on Witchcraft to the chatroom last night. Once in sound only, the second time picture through webcam and sound.
We have taped this show, and if anyone would like to see it, please let us know, and we will set up a time in the chatroom to view it again.
Understand, we and those who watched with us, were upset by the portrayal of witches in this show and many of us have email National Geographic Channel and expressed our displeasure.
Show re-airs on
Sunday, August 8, 2004, at 5P Taboo Witchcraft [TV-PG]
Also airs: Wednesday, August 11, 5:00P

I did see this program and I feel that it has brought the subject in to the open to hopefully be discussed and possibly understood in a clearer fashion.
I can't remember much of it, but I do remember it not covering enough bases on the topic.
I've gotten used to one-sided representations in education of alternative lifestyles, especially on TV, so eh... I don't think there's much we can do about it aside from making out own show and trying to please everyone with it. Which would be impossible.
