On Friday, the Fox Movie Channel decided to discontinue a summer film festival of Charlie Chan mystery movies, in reaction to criticism that the films are insensitive to Asian Americans. Fans of Charlie Chan movies disagree. Christine Chen, executive director of the Organization of Chinese Americans, Aki Aleong, President of the Media Action Network for Asian Americans, Jonathan Kuntz, Visiting Associate Professor at The UCLA School of Film, Television and Digital Media, and David Chute, Free-lance writer, editor, and film critic, join Larry Mantle to discuss the issue.
