Damn, I couldn't believe this...

After more than 20 years as executive producer and host of "Reading Rainbow," actor Levar Burton is leaving the popular children's television series, he said Monday night.

Burton, 49, mentioned his departure during a 65-minute public talk in Eisenhower Auditorium. He said he shot his last episode last year.


That really and truly sucks, but the article said that his intentions for the show were not in line with the "education" business. In other words, other people wanted to change Reading Rainbow.

I'm glad he stuck to his principles and decided to leave. America needs more good-hearted people like him.
