		Wildmon contends that Yule requested his permission for a PBS showing at that time, while Yule contends that the phone call was merely a courtesy that did not resolve a PBS showing one way or the other.
		But although Wildmon thought he knew the medium in which the British broadcasters worked and "trusted" them, he was not already familiar with their project in the same way that he would have been familiar with an American newspaper or magazine.

		Wildmon condemned a fictionalized treatment of a series of murders of fl children in Atlanta before the producer had decided to go ahead with the project.[20] Wildmon's pose as a moderate was undermined later in the year when some of his followers pushed his views about sex on television to their logical extreme.

		Description of Incident: Wildmon sued the film's producers last year, claiming that a contract he had signed with them before granting an interview for "Damned In the USA" gave him the right to control the film's distribution.

		Wildmon objects to the film, which was made for Channel Four in England, because it juxtaposes his interview with footage of artwork Wildmon's American Family Association has opposed.
