– The USA Network will be airing 3 straight nights of WWE programming in December:

* December 18th (8-10pm EST): Live WWE SmackDown Special
* December 19th (9-11pm EST): WWE Tribute To The Troops
– Sut Jhally, the writer and director of “Wrestling with Manhood: Boys, Bullying, and Battering” says that WWE’s Attitude Era under then CEO Linda McMahon was “disastrous for culture,” saying it taught millions of young males that to be a real man, you have to be “abusive, degrading, and disrespectful to women.”
Jhally, a communications professor at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, says he did not produce the documentary for political reasons but believes that McMahon should be held accountable for WWE’s influence on society during her time with the company.
