Michael W. Chapman, CNSNews.com’s LGBT–hating managing editor, has kept up his agenda, with an extra emphasis on portraying them as filthy, disease-ridden degenerates.
As he has before, Chapman had a bit of a sad in the grim duty of reporting that President Trump doesn’t hate gays as much as he does, noting in a June 7 article that Trump “applauded gay, bisexual, and transgender Americans in a recent tweet” and that ‘his administration has launched an international campaign to “decriminalize homosexuality’ worldwide.” Chapman’s response to that was spend six paragraphs of his article highlighting statistics that “Gay and bisexual men are the population most affected by HIV,” including an entire paragraph on the hazards of anal sex.
Chapman did the same thing in a June 27 article highlighting a poll showing that “the percentage of non-gay Americans aged 18-34, who are considered allies of the LGBT community, fell from 63% in 2016 to 45% in 2018. He devoted the final three paragraphs to once again rehashing LGBT health risks, empahasizing that “anal sex is the highest-risk sexual behavior for HIV transmission.”
Chapman went on to cheer a Catholic bishop for ordering his parishioners not to attend any Pride Month-related events, calling them “contrary to Church teachings on faith and morals,” as well as another Catholic bishop who defended the other bishop by insisting that “that preaching the truth of the Gospel is not homophobic.” Chapman added: “Unlike the unitive and generative nature of heterosexual coitus between a married man and woman, homosexual intercourse is non-unitive and non-generative.”
Chapman also jumped aboard the MRC corporate bandwagon and denounced the Cartoon Network for failing to hate gays the way he does and for marking Pride Month. Chapman added another editorial comment: “June is celebrated as “Pride Month” in honor of the Stonewall riot in 1968, when gay partiers fought back against the police during a vice raid on the homosexual bar, the Stonewall Inn, which was then owned by the Mafia.” Chapman didn’t explain the relevance of pointing out who owned the bar.
And, for the heck of it, he touted one of his favorite anti-gay pastors, E.W. Jackson, denouncing “the fact that some U.S. embassies around the world are defying the order of the president to not fly the gay-rainbow flag next to or below the U.S. flag, an act in itself that is blasphemous, he said, and the equivalent of ‘shaking your fist in God’s face.'”
