   If their ratings start to plummet, due to a greater emphasis on diversity than good writing, do you think they’ll blame it on us hicks? You know, the way Obambi blames someone else for everything?

   *CBS: Continuous Bovine Scatology!
   *Exactly why I read rather than watch TV; Last thing I want is homosexuality shoved in my face; Before they wanted us to tolerate it, now they want us to embrace it; Deviant, perverted sexual behavior it is, and always will be, right OMU?

   Just one more reason why I boycott the entire industry when possible, with no cable TV at all (I have one “free” channel, NBC, and that’s God-awful as well). The content is bad enough, but the writing is amateurish and stupid beyond parody. It’s just one big freak-show, 24-7.

   But yet another reason not to watch the major networks. They will almost certainly start competing with each other on who is the “gayist”. This sick trend will at some point come to an end (no pun intended), and probably with a show dedicated to NAMBLA, necrophilia, or a remake of Mr. Ed.

   Look for CBS to cave to pressure from other interest groups and air programs like these:

   -One Gay at a Time

   -The Flintstones, only this time a real emphasis on the “we’ll have a gay old time” part as we know the meaning today.

   -All Outed in the Family

    Good one. One of my kids gave me a DVD of several of those SNL’s skits with Will Ferrel as Alex Trabec. Probably the last time they were funny.

    If overt gayness is the goal ABC must get a trophy from these groups every season. They are making it so easy to not watch their programming.

    If I ran a private company that put shows on the air and a group of gay people told me they weren’t happy because they didn’t feel there was enough gay actors presented, I would just tell them to take their private equity and produce their own shows to their own liking. It’s simple, if you don’t like the way someone is doing something, do it yourself the way you want it done.

So, how come they don’t think to cast characters of backgrounds like those? The people running the main TV networks are pathetic.

    CBS will introduce more gay characters on its scripted programs in response to recently receiving a failing grade from GLAAD, CBS President Nina Tassler said Wednesday.
    —————————————-

    This is GLAAD’s agenda. More TV/film characters must be gay (and only in positive portrayals; remember the stink over Ted Levine’s character in Silence Of The Lambs?).

    Holiday-related characters such as Santa must be portrayed as gay.

    Real historical figures must be “outed” years after they have died and cannot answer any questions about their sexuality themselves.

    The only way they will be “validated” is if everyone, real or fictional, is like them.
