Captain Planet: An Extreme Left-Wing Bias? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I use to simply think that this show was simply an incredibly corny and all around unintentially cheesy and hokey take on superhero themes. It wasn't until a few years down the line that I managed to get a hold of various reviews from viewers who first and foremost, made this accusation concerning its so called ultra politically correct propaganda among others. Lets face the facts, the show sprung from an idea by Ted Turner, who of course is best known (besides being known as the "Artist Formerally Known as Ted Fonda), creating CNN AKA the so called "Clinton News Network."

The fact is, most people in the entertainment business lean to the left of the political spectrum, so it's not too surprising.
