- The Armenian Genocide (documentary)
"The Armenian Genocide" is a documentary exploring the circumstances surrounding the mass-killing of more than one million Armenians by the Ottoman Empire during World War I. The documentary was broadcast by most 348 PBS affiliate stations on April 17, 2006.
Because of the high controversy of the subject, particularly with Turkey, PBS attempted to give both sides a voice and produced a four expert panel discussion to be aired immediately afterwords. However, due to an intense lobbying effort by Armenian groups and some members of Congress, the follow-up panel discussion was cancelled on a third of those stations broadcasting the documentary over concerns of offending people who assert a genocide took place [Alessandra Stanley, [http://movies2.nytimes.com/2006/04/17/arts/television/17stan.html A PBS Documentary Makes Its Case for the Armenian Genocide, With or Without a Debate] , "The New York Times", April 17, 2006, "Accessed April 17, 2006"] .
