Catholic League president Bill Donohue addresses last night’s episode of “Young Sheldon” on CBS:
The January 11 episode of the CBS show, “Young Sheldon,” mildly lambasted Buddhism, Judaism, Hinduism, Protestantism (Baptists), Zoroastrianism, the Church of Jesus Christ Latter-day Saints, and Taoism. It made an exception for two religions: it made a frontal assault on Catholicism, trashing the Eucharist, and it said not a word about Islam.
We all know why. Catholicism is hated because it is the crown jewel of religions. Muslims are given a pass because CBS executives are cowards—they fear reprisal.
It’s really not hard to figure out. In both cases, CBS exudes bigotry.
