(From The New York Daily News -- By Rush And Malloy)
Don't blame MICKY MOUSE the next time the REV. PAT ROBERTSON mouths off.
Robertson's wacky suggestion that the U.S. should put a hit on VENEZUELAN President HUGO CHAVEZ forced DISNEY-OWNED ABC FAMILY CABLE NETWORK to put DISCLAIMERS at the start and finish of his 700 CLUB SHOW -- making it plain that Robertson's opinions are his own.
The left-wing watchdog group MEDIA MATTERS FOR AMERICA pressed DISNEY to pull THE 700 CLUB, but the network told the group it's contractually obligated to air the program.
"FAMILY FRIENDLY PROGRAMMING certainly shouldn't include death threats," says MEDIA MATTERS' PAUL WALDMAN.
