question / pregunta:
I'm a newbie here and tried to post this. I want to know more about Dick Rolfe and the Dove Foundation, which rates films for "family-friendly" content. I buy DVDs for a public library and it seems most of the movies get horrible reviews, but many of our patrons think "Dove-approved" movies are the greatest. Who is Dick Rolfe? Why did he get money from the Prince Foundation (Eric Prince? Blackwater?)
