    Default why is the media so intent on showing acceptance of homosexuality down my throat

    at the present time, i dont have a problem with homosexuals, (you never know how i'll feel tommorrow about this or any other issue )

    why the incessant need for the media to tell me to accept gays as they are, but in the same breathe disrespect my beliefs on abortion, and the war in iraq and afghanistan and call me a right winger, or a nazi, or a homephobe, or a racist, simply for believing in god, and judeo-christan values (which were what this country was founded on). Its funny how those who scream the loudest for tolerance are so thin skinned and intolerant. (with anyone who dare to think different, believe different, and who dont kiss their ass, and bow down to them)

    The media over here presents both sides of the issue, they are never bias. I don't know what the media is like in the US, but over here, it's obviously a lot better.

    Until I was presented with the other side I thought the same thing about the US main-stream media.
    You obviously just don't see it.

    April would never approve of such a nasty insult. Neither would her boyfriend. Not that they have much time to think about it.

    The media here is much different than the US media, so of course I don't see what you are seeing.

    Think of every time anything along the line of the term, "Leftwing nutjob" has crossed your lips, or your keyboard, and you'll get the idea. Both side keep taking swipes at each other, and honestly, I think its simply because we like to fight that we keep not seeing this, or having it pointed out to us in clear terms, and then immediately going right back into the fight.

    I need examples, I surely don't see this. Only time gays are in the news is when they are given their constitutional right to marry. As far as media, I read somewhere that media is what we dream is possible. Consider all the one night stands on TV, that is most men's fantasy, but I wonder how real it is. And media obviously has a great many gay writers etc so there should be story lines etc that express their concerns.
