Newt Gingrich Slams ABC Show 'GCB'

GULFPORT, Miss. - ABC's new fall show, "GCB,"? met with some objections from conservative and Christian groups from its inception, and Friday Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich threw? in his opinion? about the show, saying it was an example of the "bias of elite media."

The show, starring Kristin Chenoweth, is based on the novel "Good Christian Bitches" by Kim Gatlin but the title was changed to "GCB" for the show.

Gingrich told a crowd of mostly teenagers at a campaign stop at Gulfport High School? that the network running the show would have handled a show with the word "Muslim" differently.

"Look at the new show that's on that has the word 'Christian' in it, and I want you to take the exact name, drop out Christian and put in 'Muslim.' And ask yourself is their any network that would have dared to run a show like that and you know the answer is not a one, because anti-Christian bigotry is just fine in the entertainment industry but they have to be very protective of Islam," Gingrich said.
