GLAAD: Gay characters to double this season
http://www.thrfeed.com/2008/09/glaad-gay-chara.html

The number of gay and lesbian TV characters on the broadcast networks will double to an all-time high this season.

There will be 16 regular characters on major-network scripted series this season who are lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender, according to an annual survey conducted by the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation.

That's more than twice as many as last year and the most in the 13 years GLAAD has been doing the study. The figures also reverse a trend of declining LGBT representation on broadcast, which had dropped the past two years. The number of recurring LGBT characters also is rising this year, up from 13 last season to 19.

"This dramatic increase shows how far many networks have come in developing complex, multilayered lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender characters," GLAAD president Neil Giuliano said.

Fox is the most-improved network, according to the survey. At the start of last season, the network had no LGBT characters; this year, it will have five -- the most of any network.

Exactly.

I, for one, am tired of all the gay news!! Whatever happened to staying in the closet...

I know, that sounds mean. I just think it is so sad that so many are being so open about it that it causes others to think this is acceptable.. really sad about Clay Aiken because I knew he had said he was a Christian....

It is deception, they are being accepted now. Not only accepted but now they can freely say they are Christians and many have no problem with that.
Look how many preachers preached for years that homosexuality would increase before the coming of the Lord.
I have been saying it for almost 10 years that every year it will be more accepted, I believe paul warned us of this and it shows the direction of this nation. May God help us.
I just worry for those that think well if they are gay who should say they cant go to heaven?????
The main thing you have to keep in mind is the hate speech bill and things of that nature. The more it is accepted the more they will get you for preaching it will send you to hell as any other sin.

I'm just sick of it on TV. Flat out sick of it. I get so mad sometimes I just want to say, "Look, go be gay if that's what you really want. It's on you, not me. Just stay away from my family."
