请不要放弃。我们能够赢得与PBS关于《南京梦魇》的斗争

两个月以前，墨西哥裔美国人要求PBS把他们的贡献也包括在PBS关于二战的系列片中。PBS拒绝了，并不诚实地做了一些动作，还编造了许多借口。他们被指控种族主义和偏执，并最终被迫同意作出改变。

在过去的七天里，成千的华裔美国人联系了PBS，WGBH等等，并敦促他们播放广受赞誉的纪录片，《南京梦魇》。

在一封给我（约瑟夫博士）的不具名信件中，WGBH声称他们“已经在网络上观看了这部电影，”但网络版本的清晰度很低，总尺寸不到100MB。影片的DVD版本有着适于播放的清晰度，总尺寸超过16GB。当我（约瑟夫博士）指出这一点时，WGBH在它给影片支持者的拒绝信中，却掩盖了这一点并掩藏了是低清晰度的“网络”版本不符合他们的“技术”标准这一事实。WGBH在不诚实地文过饰非。请注意我已经提出与PBS，WGBH等等合作，愿意作出任何合理的改变。

请不要放弃！

我已经联系了若干民选的官员和新闻记者（电视评论员），并且已经与纽约时报的一位编辑谈过话。他对这个故事很感兴趣。如果我们继续施加压力，中国人民和历史将会是胜利者。

请不要放弃。我们正在赢得这场战斗。也请你们考虑联系你们当地报纸的电视评论员。

我已经写了一封新的电子邮件（见下）和一个新的电子邮件地址来联系PBS的总裁：[email protected]

尊敬的Kerger总裁:

我们正在敦促PBS展示一些灵活性，播出广受赞誉的记录电影，《南京梦魇》。这部电影的导演已经同意与PBS并肩工作，以作出合理的改变。

在最近的二战系列片中，PBS未能提到中国和华裔美国人的贡献。中国在二战中是美国的主要盟友之一，超过三千万的中国人被杀害，有一百万的日本人在中国战斗。但是，PBS却强调了日本人遭受的苦难和日本士兵的英勇。PBS正计划播出另外一部电影来吹捧日本士兵的英勇，但是却无视中国和中国人民的贡献。这种节目是充满偏见的，不诚实而又显得种族主义。

成千的华裔美国人已经要求PBS和PBS电视台（例如WGBH）于今年十二月，南京大屠杀七十周年纪念之时，播出广受赞誉的纪录片，《南京梦魇》。KQED拒绝了这部电影因为他们相信这个主题“充满争议”。这是一种不诚实的行为。WGBH“在网络上观看了这部电影”。但电影的网络版本的清晰度很低，总尺寸不到100MB。WGBH据此以“技术”原因拒绝了这部电影。这是不诚实的。PBS选择了编造理由，无视播出电影的要求。由于PBS有义务为公众服务，无视这些要求或者编造理由是不诚实的行为。

PBS是由公众资助的。PBS有义务服务于公众。我们要求PBS，WGBH等等，播出广受赞誉的纪录片《南京梦魇》。这部电影已经在世界范围内被观看了一千万次，在美国被观看了四百万次，并在YOUTUBE“一直以来被讨论最多的电影”中排名第九。

Don't Give Up. We Can Win the Battle with PBS Over the Rape of Nanking.

Two months ago, Mexican-Americans demanded that PBS include their contributions in the PBS series on WWII. PBS refused, behaved dishonestly, made up dozens of excuses,

was accused of racism and bigotry, and finally agreed to make changes.

In the last 7 days, thousands of Chinese Americans have contacted PBS, WGBH, etc., urging they show the highly acclaimed documentary, The Rape of Nanking.

In an anonymous letter to me (Dr. Joseph) WGBH stated they "reviewed the film online," which is very low resolution and less than 100 MB in size. The DVD version is broadcast

resolution and over 16 Gigabytes in size. When I (Dr Joseph) pointed this out, WGBH, in its rejection letter to supporters, covered up and hid the fact that it is the low resolution

"online" copy that does not meet their "technical" standards. WGBH is behaving dishonestly. Note I have offered to cooperate with PBS, WGBH, etc., to make any reasonable

changes.

Don't Give Up.

I have contacted several elected officials and newspaper reporters (TV critics), and have spoken with an editor at the New York Times who is interested in this story. If we

continue the pressure, the Chinese people, and history, will be the winner.

Don't Give Up. We are winning this battle. You should also consider contacting your local newspaper's TV Critic.

I have composed a new email (see below), and a new e-mail address to contact the president of PBS: [email protected]

PBS President Kerger: Please Show the Rape of Nanking

Dear President Kerger:

We are urging PBS to show some flexibility and to show the highly acclaimed documentary film, The Rape of Nanking." The director has agreed to work with PBS to make any

reasonable changes.

In the recent series on WWII, PBS failed to make any mention of the contributions of China or Chinese-Americans. China was a major Allie of the USA, over 30 million Chinese

were killed, and 1 million Japanese were fighting in China. Instead, PBS emphasized Japanese suffering and the bravery of Japanese soldiers.

PBS is planning to show yet another documentary glorifying the bravery of Japanese soldiers but continues to ignore the contributions of China and the Chinese people. This

type of programming is biased, dishonest and racist.

Thousands of Chinese-Americans have requested that PBS and PBS stations such as WGBH, air the highly acclaimed documentary, The Rape of Nanking, this December, the

70th anniversary of the Rape of Nanking. KQED rejected the film because they believed the topic was "controversial." This is dishonest. WGBH "reviewed the online film" which

is low resolution and less than 100 mb and then rejected the low resolution edition because of "technical" reasons. This is dishonest. PBS has chosen to ignore these requests

and to make excuses. As PBS has a mandate to serve the public, ignoring these requests or making excuses is dishonest.

PBS is publically funded. PBS has a mandate to serve the public. We are requesting that PBS, WGBH, etc., air the highly acclaimed documentary, The Rape of Nanking, which has

been viewed an estimated 10 million times world wide, 4 million times in the US, and is ranked #9 "Most Discussed Film of All Time" -youtube.
