The censorship of @BreakGameMovie is just the tip of the iceberg. Please read through this article to learn more about other troubling examples of PBS censoring films and supplemental content.

Great thread here about PBS pretending they didn't pull @BreakGameMovie from their broadcast schedule for political reasons.
So @POVdocs has asked DOCNYC to provide "broader context" for its newsletter item about PBS's decision to pull the trans-themed film BREAK THE GAME from its scheduled slot on Apr. 7.

PBS also pulled the website for the film from PBS.org, at least until shortly after I'd reached out for comment and the film was promptly rescheduled.
Just to clarify, does this also happen to at least one film in every season for a variety of reasons?

The film's director, @JaneMWagner, told me that POV's executive producers were explicit about the fact that her film had lost its premiere date for political reasons-- a fact they subsequently confirmed to her by email.

POV's executive producers, who declined to comment for my story in The Atlantic, now suggest this was just a normal bit of rescheduling-- of the sort that happens to "at least one film every season for a variety of reasons."

My Response to the @DOCNYCfest Monday Memo "correction"
I appreciate DOCNYC's efforts to clarify and agree, it's important to have the proper context. As stated in The Atlantic article, Break the Game was removed from the broadcast schedule with no replacement date, and deleted from the PBS website weeks before the PBS congressional hearing.
Only after a journalist from the Atlantic began asking questions was the film given a new broadcast date. However you want to phrase it, the effect is the same: PBS shelved a trans story for political reasons.
Transparency and accountability matter—especially when it comes to public media.
Thank you everyone who tuned in, and thank you @trihex for hosting such a memorable premiere!

When BREAK THE GAME film airs tonight on my twitch, know that it does hit quite close to home. Speedrunning & Twitch have been my life for majority of my time on this planet.
I can't wait to share insight on some the impossibilities speedrunning has produced since.

“Not only are we experiencing media consolidation that has limited opportunities for independent storytellers, but the threat of retribution from the Trump administration has had a chilling effect on the entire landscape,” she said. “My hope is that speaking out about what happened will empower others who have experienced similar situations of censorship to speak up and fight for our collective ability to tell stories that matter.”
See you tonight at 8:00 PM EST at twitch.tv/trihex
