Syndicated
Columnist Condemns Breaking the Silence
Conservative commentator Phyllis
Schlafly, whose syndicated column appears in
more than 100 newspapers, criticizes PBS's
Breaking the Silence: Children's Stories in
her newest column. Schlafly writes:
"The recent PBS program called Breaking
the Silence is an example of feminist
propaganda that men are batterers and women are
victims. Among the falsehoods in the film was
the assertion that 'one-third of mothers lose
custody [of their children] to abusive husbands'
and that if a divorcing father seeks any form of
child custody, he's most likely a wife-beater.
"In fact, divorced fathers win child custody
of their children only 15 percent of the time,
and U.S. government figures show that the
majority of perpetrators of child abuse and
neglect are female. Yet the Mary Kay Ash
Foundation paid a half million dollars to film
and publicize PBS's war on dads."
