Thank you, KABC, for your atrocious mutilation...

Thank you, KABC, for your atrocious mutilation of the film “Lawrence of Arabia,” which the station itself announced as being “internationally acclaimed” and winner of the Oscar for best picture. It was bad enough that you split the showing into two parts over two nights, but why did you choose to cut (in their entirety) two crucial segments that contribute so much to the understanding of the enigmatic T. E. Lawrence? Give yourself a pat, KABC, for once more ruining a work of art.
