Bure issued a statement to People saying she was saddened “that the media is often seeking to divide us.”
Bure issued a statement to People“All of you who know me, know beyond question that I have great love and affection for all people. It absolutely breaks my heart that anyone would ever think I intentionally would want to offend and hurt anyone,” said Bure’s statement, according to People. “It saddens me that the media is often seeking to divide us, even around a subject as comforting and merry as Christmas movies. But, given the toxic climate in our culture right now, I shouldn’t be surprised.
“I have long wanted to find a home for more faith-based programming. I am grateful to be an integral part of a young and growing network,” the statement added. “I had also expressed in my interview, which was not included, that people of all ethnicities and identities have and will continue to contribute to the network in great ways both in front of and behind the camera, which I encourage and fully support.
Bure currently serves as the chief creative officer for the network, which she joined earlier this year after leavingGLAAD President and CEO Sarah Kate Ellis called Bure’s comments “irresponsible” and “hurtful” in a statement Wednesday. “If plan is to intentionally exclude stories about LGBTQ couples, then actors, advertisers, cable and streaming platforms, and production companies should take note and seriously consider whether they want to be associated with a network that holds exclusion as one of its values,” Ellis said.
Siwa responded to Bure's remarks in an Instagram post Tuesday, writing, “Honestly, I can’t believe, after everything that went down just a few months ago, that she would not only create a movie with the intention of excluding LGBTQIA+, but then also talk about it in the press. This is rude and hurtful to a whole community of people."
