Networks deny charges of being anti Christian
The Rev Donald Wildmon led a boycott threat against ABC CBS and NBC alleging anti Christian bias in programs. Networks rejected the charges as unfounded and intemperate while Wildmon said a major boycott would follow early in the year. A New York radio station was donated to fund efforts benefiting the United Negro College Fund and Unity Broadcasting Network. Viacom sold WWRL to NYUCF for about 3 million dollars. NBC canceled a planned SNL skit lampooning Fred Silverman citing libel concerns. Rona Barrett will host an NBC special with Rock Hudson and Mick Jagger as guests.
