A 'Beat the Press' debate, and then a beating in the press

Opinion journalists shouldn’t have to apologize for their opinions
Re “GBH host sorry for comments called racist” (Page A1, April 17): So “Beat the Press” host Emily Rooney has speculated that a Ken Burns documentary might receive more airtime on PBS than documentaries produced by minority filmmakers because of the superiority of Burns’s work. Her remarks sparked predictable outrage, and she videotaped a predictable apology agreeing with her critics, and GBH bosses, that she “crossed a line.”
I have no opinion about the merits of Rooney’s comments or the quality of the documentaries at issue. But I do believe that opinion journalists should not be required to apologize for expressing their opinions and that a show ostensibly devoted to debating media issues should not declare some issues non-debatable. Indeed, Rooney’s comments inspired debate, as “Beat the Press” panelists vigorously challenged her.

Longtime GBH-TV host Emily Rooney is apologizing for on-air comments she made while discussing concerns raised by filmmakers of color about PBS’s decades-long relationship with documentarian Ken Burns.
On the April 2 episode of GBH show “Beat the Press,” Rooney appeared to minimize the complaints of a group called Beyond Inclusion, which last month released a letter critical of PBS’s ties to Burns and its effect on nonwhite filmmakers.
