Gay community gives media failing grade Printable Version PRINTABLE VERSION
by TellUs, Jul 1, 2007
Culture , Human Rights , LGBT Rights   Short Stories

  


Just as journalists and media have learned and committed themselves to covering issues of race using sensitive terms where necessary, and not revealing a persons race when it is not necessary, hopefully journalists will soon learn to do the same for sexuality issues. After all, our rainbow nation is not just about race, but embracing the many kinds of diversity found in our country and our communities.
