Blogger criticizes "Between the Lions" CD in Chick-fil-A kids' meal

Tim Graham, a blogger with the conservative site Newsbusters, was upset during a recent drive-through visit to Chick-fil-A. Included in his daughter's kid's meal was a Between the Lions CD, with logos of WGBH and Mississippi Public Broadcasting. "This underlines how blurry the line is between public broadcasting and private-sector merchandising," he writes on the site that calls itself "the leader in documenting, exposing and neutralizing liberal media bias." The "Hypocrisy!" in the headline refers to PBS President Paula Kerger's comments at the recent winter press tour that children's programming on commercial stations is built mainly around opportunities to sell toys to kids.
