Reminds me of an incident here in The Netherlands, where the EO (evangalical broadcasting), who were airing his shows, had edited them to exclude any reference to millions of years ago and so forth. See here, here and here.

Found at Panda's thumb (quoted in it's entirety):
​
quote:
I just received the following letter from Holland:
​
Yesterday 3 Feb, the Dutch evangelical, TV presentator and former director of the Evangelical Broadcast Organisation (EO), Andries Knevel, openly rejected his belief in Young Earth Creationism and ID. He apologised for promoting those beliefs in the past years to his children and the public. He wants credibility, reliability and belief. He desires an open debate about God and evolution with believers and non-believers alike. He believes GOD and evolution do not exclude each other. Both science and belief have their own value. He still belief that God created heaven and earth en that Jezus is our Saviour.
​
On July 27 2007 it was discovered and documented http://evolutie.blog.com/1962396/ that the EO censored all evolution and old earth from the BBC documentaries of David Attenborough. Now the EO no longer denies it was censorship indeed by showing fragments they censored in the past years. This is a remarkable breakthrough and conversion. Especially hopeful in the Darwinyear 2009. There are still YEC’s in Holland, but the main evangelical television station has made a very promising move.

New dutch forum for evolution-creation debate
Now, a "snake eating it's tail" type message:
​
Huntard, at a "Links and Information" topic, writes:
​
The EO (evangalical broadcasting) has just opened a forum to discuss the evolution-creation issue.
​
It's located here: Error 404 Network
​
It's all in Dutch, so if you can't read or write it, it won't do you any good to go there.
​
If you think this sounds familiar, that's possible, the EO is the organization Andries Knevel works for, the one who renounced his belief in creationism last week, Moose had a topic about that here: http://EvC Forum: Dutch evangelical Andries Knevel rejects his belief in Young Earth Creationism -->EvC Forum: Dutch evangelical Andries Knevel rejects his belief in Young Earth Creationism
​
Well, see you around!

I thought that link should be in this topic also. Now you can go to that topic, which links back to this topic, and do the mobious strip reading dance.
​
Or something like that.
