Monitoring "Jerry Springer: The Opera"

The Catholic League has been monitoring plans to bring “Jerry Springer: The Opera” to Broadway for some time, but has refrained from saying anything because the initial plans were scrapped. However, it is being reported today that if the producers can come up with the cash, they will bring “Springer” to Broadway in spring 2006.

Catholic League president William Donohue commented as follows:
“This show is Satanic and will be met with a massive protest if the producers are dumb enough to bring it to New York. Having been galvanized by Mel Gibson’s ‘The Passion,’ and having been successfully mobilized last fall during the electoral season, Christians have more energy and confidence these days than they’ve had in years. Anyone who thinks Catholics and Protestants are going to put up with organized hate speech is nuts. All they need is some leadership, and we and our allies will provide it.”

You can more about it here. Donohue is right - if the reports are correct, it is satanic.
