Puppeteer’s TV show still on the air despite plot to eat children
Puppeteers TV show still on the air despite plot to eat children
Christian Television Network has a media crisis on its hands now that one of its childrens entertainers has been arrested. Ronald Brown, a puppeteer on the networks long-running Joy Junction has been charged with conspiracy to kidnap and eat children.
CTN completely fails at crisis management.
According to The Tampa Bay Times:
Brown worked for years for the Christian Television Network in Largo, the states oldest Christian broadcasting station. He performed with puppets on a Captain Kangaroo-style show called Joy Junction. In one episode, a video excerpt of which is available online, he operates a puppet that talks disdainfully about how some bad kids tried to show him pornography.
A receptionist at CTNs headquarters in Largo said Tuesday that the station had no comment on Browns arrest and would not make other officials available or allow a reporter into the building. It is not clear whether Brown still works there, though his Facebook page states he is employed as a control operator at the network.
Thats a huge mistake, CTN! You simply must do better than that. You need to *at the very least* assure everyone that you are cooperating with police investigations to the fullest. There are other reasons to assume they are seriously dropping the ball here.
CTN is apparently still airing Joy Junction!
