FYI - While I enjoy reading "The Dallas Observer", you need to know that it's the independent newspaper. Basically, it follows the philosophy that if you don't live in a hip/bohemian neighborhood of Dallas (Uptown, parts of Lakewood, Deep Ellum, Bishop Arts District, and Oaklawn & Cedar Springs-before they were gentrified) then you must be an all-white-white-bread-lovin'-yearning-for-the-days-of-JR & SueEllen (tv show, not the 2 gay bars) person. If you live in the suburbs? God bless you and have mercy on your soul.

This is the same newspaper that had an undercover reporter go to some Highland Park High School student parties a couple of years ago. The reporter was hoping to find rampant drug & sex among the HP elite. When it turned out to be boring, normal high school parties, the reporter ended up criticizing the girls for wearing Uggs and the boys for wearing NorthFace jackets.

That being said, if I had been the director of PCT, I would have cut my losses and not performed the show. But, the Observer is trying to make a mountain out of a molehill.
