"If the decision not to air "The Reagans" was made in response to political pressure, it will have a chilling effect on future creative efforts in this genre," said Herb Sargent, president of the Writers Guild of America, East. "Even under the threat of advertiser boycott, networks must not allow special interest groups to dictate programming."
