CNSNews.com used to have a “Waste Watch” section that seemed disproportionately focused on federal spending on LGBT issues. “Waste Watch” is gone, but CNS still thinks spending money on gays is a waste.
And CNS’ Melanie Hunter is on it with a pair of articles over the past week:
- $446,056 Gov’t Study Explores Link Between Alcohol Abuse, Domestic Violence – Among Lesbians
- $524,403 Gov’t Study Examines Link Between Diabetes and Lesbian, Bisexual Women
Both articles ended with Hunter noting that she attempted to ask the respective project leaders for the grants how they were “an effective use of taxpayer funds” — which clearly indicates that she doesn’t think it is, though she never explains why.
Apparently, in CNS’ right-wing world, any federal spending on gays is axiomatically a waste.
