"One Million Moms (OMM) is only now freaking out that the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) released some gay-inclusive children's shows nearly a half-decade ago. OMM has asked its followers to sign a petition saying that they "completely disapprove of my tax dollars being used to push the LGBTQ agenda on PBS KIDS," even though federal funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting was severely cut by Congress last year."
"OMM noted that PBS KIDS recently re-aired a July 2022 episode of the children's show The Odd Squad entitled "Monumental Oddness," which features a child character known as Agent Oswald officiating a same-sex marriage between two women under the Eiffel Tower. "After the women declare their love for each other," 1MM notes, "one child agent steps in as an officiant and declares the women 'married.'""
One Million Moms (OMM) criticized PBS KIDS for airing gay-inclusive content and urged supporters to sign a petition opposing taxpayer funding for such programming. OMM highlighted a July 2022 Odd Squad episode, "Monumental Oddness," in which a child character officiates a same-sex wedding between two women at the Eiffel Tower. OMM also referenced a 2021 Sesame Street appearance by Billy Porter as evidence of non-family-friendly content. OMM framed PBS KIDS as using taxpayer dollars to "indoctrinate children" into an LGBTQ lifestyle. Federal funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting was significantly reduced by Congress last year.
