BOYCOTT - DETROIT PUBLIC TELEVISION / PBS
Detroit PBS...Boycott....
Detroit Public Television has failed to air the documentary, Stranded at the Corner, about historic Detroit Tiger Stadium - Why ???? even after all these years since the Stadium was demolished, Rich Homberg refuses to air the documentary, directed by Gary Glaser and produced by Peter Comstock Riley.
It is shameful that Detroit Public Television is afraid to air the documentary and have a public discussion about it, because the fear of retaliation by Mike Ilitch, who many believe had been the driving force behind 'demolition by neglect' and who profited greatly as the Stadium sat neglected, while he collected money for its upkeep.
So - please withhold donations to Detroit PBS, until they put the documentary in its lineup, and have a round table discussion about - Why it was demolished and Who is responsible. !!
STRANDED AT THE CORNER
This film explores the public and private maneuverings that resulted from the abandonment of Tiger Stadium, one of the nation’s classic ballparks. Featured in the film is archival footage and interviews as well as the rich history of Tiger Stadium, the struggle to prevent the team from leaving the ballpark, and its current state of neglect.
