Controversial new television show The Book of Daniel has been removed from the lineup
of Nashville's NBC affiliate after the show drew thousands of complaints from irate viewers, incuding letters faxed in
on church letterhead. The show has now been pulled from seven network affiliates, mostly in the South. The
Book of Daniel, which features Aidan Quinn as a pill-popping Episcopalian priest with a gay son, has drawn the
fire of conservative Christian groups, most notably the American Family Association, which is encouraging members
through its website to protest the show and threaten boycotts of advertisers.
