Bigotry charges aimed at Lowes over Muslim TV show | The Raw Story: One of the biggest US retailers faced charges of bigotry Monday after it bowed to pressure from a Christian group and stopped advertising on a reality TV show about Arab Americans.
Lowe’s, a national hardware chain, said it was among a number of sponsors to abandon “All-American Muslim,” which follows the daily lives of five suburban families of Arab heritage in Dearborn, Michigan.
“Individuals and groups have strong political and societal views on this topic, and this program became a lighting rod for many of those views,” it said in a statement on its Facebook page.
