Description
Summary:	The article reports that a controversy erupted after the newspaper "Daily News" reported that Drawing Center, the cultural institution planned as part of the World Trade Center memorial complex, will be exhibiting anti-American art. New York Governor George Pataki responded by saying that anything that denigrates the U.S. and the sacrifice and courage of 9/11 heroes will not be tolerated.
