Given the Media Research Center’s anti-gay agenda, assume that any reference to gays are meant to be either disparaging or to provide an opportunity for disparagement. Case in point: CNS resorting to anti-gay hate group leaders to bash a proposed law banning reparative therapy for gays.
This past weekend, though, CNS has piled up a bunch of gay-related freakouts mostly related to June being Gay Pride Month:
In a June 5 article, Penny Starr was appalled that the State Department is celebrating Pride Month by featuring LGBT employees, including “an Obama political appointee whom the department describes as a transsexual who has been ‘an international development practitioner, academic, and ethicist.'”
A June 6 article by Starr complains that “Middle and high school students in Minnesota who were bullied because ‘they dared to be out’ and a Department of Justice attorney who is a transgender activist were honored by Attorney General Eric Holder and other DOJ officials on Wednesday.”
A June 6 article by Pete Winn reports that “An Army chaplain has performed the first same-sex nuptial ceremony on a military base–one involving two lesbian soldiers.”
In a June 7 article, Amanda Swysgood is not thrilled that President Obama made a Pride Month video message in which he “praises lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) Americans, describing them as ‘unsung heroes’ who have ‘bent the arc of the moral universe towards justice.'”
