[Frameworks] Animate Projects

[Beth Capper]

Gary,

Is there anything that can be done to stop this - this is absolutely
terrible. I read the blog post but I still don't understand this: "it would
not be fair or consistent to fund activity of this nature through Grants for
the arts." What does that mean? Are they suggesting Animate's output is not
"art"?

- Beth
