You must be thinking of Russian Rhoda. Don't think Ted Turner would appreciate being mistaken for Rupert the Red Nosed Ruskie.

Erm - Jane Fonda was married to Ted Turner. Rupert Murdock was married to Patricia Booker, Anna Torv, Wendi Deng, and then Jerry Hall.

George Soros is a hedge fund billionaire and doesn't have any outright or majority ownership in any media company.

Rupert Murdock owns Fox (among other things).

Ted Turner is the founder of CNN and has a majority stake in the Turner Broadcasting System.

We have to forgive the Hanoi Jane poster; he may have hit posting fecundity

And here we read exactly how ignorant [defined as uneducated, and unwilling to fact check, instead blindly and pig headedly confirming their own uninformed biases] some people's facts can be. It is hard to believe anyone thinks Fox has "gone to the other side" or that Soros has any meaningful input into anything in the news. I keep waiting for my check from him.

And when the first grade art project is to make a gift for mother's day and a child says I don't have a mother but I have two daddies, how should that be handled? Should that child be embarrassed and ostracized as a weirdo? Should the teacher make it clear that the only kind of family is one mother and one father? Or should the teacher be free to support that child by explaining that families come in lots of different varieties?

There is no such thing as not discussing gender and gay marriage in early school. Should every drawing in a textbook be a white child with white parents? Could there be one of a black mom and a white dad? or two mommies? Should all the pictures be sure to include a nice cross mounted on the wall? How about a Muslim hajib garbed mommy? Kids will 100% notice if they and their loved ones are not included in the presentation of family, and culture.

Having one Chanukah song at the Xmas pageant in December did not make the Jewish kids feels seen. It made them "othered" Here is one song for you, weirdo. And while you can remove all references to God systems from the school, you cannot remove all references to what is a family.

Can the woman teacher have a photo of her spouse on her desk and mention him in passing comments? What if her husband is another woman, can she mention that too?

Say, "Great, you'll make something for your Daddies"...

Gee, that was hard to figure out, wasn't it?

None of that deals with "Gender nor Gay marriage", but whatever...

Really? It. ever bothered me when I was a kid.

As to your 2nd attempt at a point, the new law does not require removing "all references to what is a family"... Nor does it require that you remove all references to god.

Nothing in the law says she can't...

Let them watch the evening news if you choose. Be prepared to answer their questions. If you want them to see dead bodies in a war field, severed body parts, deviant behavior, I guess to a point, that is your choice. But, that would be your choice and responsibility. Don't throw it at them in school and then expect parents to deal with something that some other person or entity decided they should be exposed to.

You forgot Fox, Newsmax, etc

“Sex,” I was pretty sure, meant whether you were a boy or girl, and “sin” made Tante Jans very angry, but what the two together meant I could not imagine. And so, seated next to Father in the train compartment, I suddenly asked, “Father, what is sexsin?”
He turned to look at me, as he always did when answering a question, but to my surprise he said nothing. At last he stood up, lifted his traveling case from the rack over our heads, and set it on the floor.
“Will you carry it off the train, Corrie?” he said.
I stood up and tugged at it. It was crammed with the watches and spare parts he had purchased that morning.
“It’s too heavy,” I said.
“Yes,” he said. “And it would be a pretty poor father who would ask his little girl to carry such a load. It’s the same way, Corrie, with knowledge. Some knowledge is too heavy for children. When you are older and stronger you can bear it. For now you must trust me to carry it for you.” - from The Hiding Place: The Triumphant True Story of Corrie Ten Boom

We are asking our children to carry loads that are way too heavy for them. They should not be forced, as children, to see and feel the world through the lens of adults. Innocence is worth protecting and worth fighting for. We need to do our part as teachers, parents and caregivers to carry certain things for them until they are old enough to bear the load.

So true, but remember when television programming didn’t allow racy or violent topics until after 9PM? Now anything goes all day, including commercials. The world has changed

True, and they weren't being discussed by teachers. This whole bill was another dog whistle.... making you think the governor has fixed a problem that didn't exist. Teachers weren't grooming children, they weren't being pedophiles....... this country would be so much better off without all the lies that keep circulating designed to rile people up. When we were in school, no one asked our parents what they wanted taught. We elect school boards to make those decisions.
