Ken Miller testifying in Dover trial

A special documentary about Kitzmiller v. Dover will be aired on PBS on November 13, 2007

JUDGMENT DAY:  INTELLIGENT DESIGN ON TRIAL

Judgment Day: Intelligent Design on Trial, a special two-hour documentary
about the Kitzmiller v. Dover case, in which teaching "intelligent design"
in the public schools was ruled to be unconstitutional, is to air
nationwide on PBS at 8:00 p.m. on November 13, 2007.  "Judgment Day
captures on film a landmark court case with a powerful scientific message
at its core," explains Paula Apsell, NOVA's Senior Executive
Producer.  "Evolution is one of the most essential yet, for many people,
least understood of all scientific theories, the foundation of biological
science.  We felt it was important for NOVA to do this program to heighten
the public understanding of what constitutes science and what does not, and
therefore, what is acceptable for inclusion in the science curriculum in
our public schools."
