Bravo, Other Media Outlets Sponsor LA Fundraiser for Gay Censors
The NBC Universal-owned cable channel Bravo has earned a pro-gay reputation since the reality show "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy." But on Sunday afternoon in Los Angeles, it will be raising money for the gay censorship group called the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD). The event is a "Bravo Top Chef Challenge," after the hit cooking show:
Enjoy the BRAVO Top Chef challenge, delicious tasting stations from incredible Los Angeles high-end restaurants and caterers, entertainment, and an amazing food & wine-themed silent and live auction. Join us and help GLAAD raise funds to amplify the voice of the LGBT community!
The question might not be so much "amplifying" GLAAD's voice as it is silencing opposition from the MRC and other conservative groups in news programs that are supposed to be "objective." They circulated a petition telling CNN it needed to make a New Year's resolution: "the media needs to do a little housecleaning. Namely, it's time for outlets to finally drop several hundred pounds of unhealthy weight, which they've been carrying around for years, in the form of anti-gay activists." No debate allowed!
Here's more event detailsLisa Vanderpump, star of Bravo's the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills (as well as a restaurant owner, designer, actress, and humanitarian), will be joining us as the celebrity host, while Chef Susan Feniger will host the BRAVO Top Chef Challenge. Competing in that competition will be Chef Antonia Lofaso and Chef Fabio Viviani, while Jamie Lauren will be among the celebrity judges. It's an event you don't want to miss!
Feniger and Lauren [pictured to the right] have both been promoted as lesbian chefs on "Top Chef." In addition to Lauren, there are two celebrity judges from Hollywood: Shonda Rhimes, the creator of ABC's "Grey's Anatomy" and "Private Practice," and Dustin Lance Black, the screenwriter of the gay biopic "Milk." Rhimes has been loading her shows with gay plots to compensate GLAAD after she fired Grey's star Isaiah Washington for using the slur "faggot" on a private set.
There are other corporate media sponsors for this Top Chef censorship event as well: Paramount Pictures, Univision, The Hollywood Reporter, and LA Weekly.

They've been shouting at us for the last 3 decades - enough is enough! Someone needs to tell these people, "You're gay. So what? Get over it! And leave the rest of us alone. Crawl back into the closet where you belong." It's bad enough they've taken words such as glad and gay and bastardized them, not to mention perverting something as beautiful as a rainbow.
Shame is what these people should feel - shame and remorse for ruining not only their lives, but for forcing their vile pestilence on us. I liked the days when sexual perverts of all stripes kept it to themselves for fear of retribution.
EXACTLY!

You're right. The 'voice' of the LGBT community is amplified enough. That's like saying The Who needed more Marshall stacks. "Yeah, but this one goes to 11."

So, is the Jewish anti-defamation league actually a Jewish censorship group? Is the Christian Anti-Defamation Commission a Christian censorship group?

If they want some speech (no matter how offensive to them) removed from the public discourse, then, yes they are. If they are merely protesting it's use, then, no they're not.

I dont want to hear about their gayness-if youre gay, then FINE-keep it to yourself. Do people want to hear about MY sexual preferences and turn-ons? I dont think so. However, if you do, please feel free to send me an email, lol!
Exactly!

I don't care if one is gay. It has no effect on my day to day life. However, I am sick and tired of hearing about it all the time. What goes on in one's bedroom between consenting adults is one's own business. Not mine. Sexuality is not polite to discuss with the public and, frankly, hearing about it all the time brings about more hostility. I'm not anti gay. I'm anti "rubbing your sexuality in my face all the time."
And I fail to understand why what goes on in one's bedroom should entitle one to special anti discrimination legislation.

All "gays" are liars, as are most of the world today, for those no such thing as the "homosex-" oxymoron wildly successful propaganda and never was, as seen in "The gay invention" at http://www.touchstonemag.com/archives/article.php?id=18-10-036-f
Also see vile Kinsey's orchestration of the decimation of our morals jurisprudence exposed at www.drjudithreisman.org. Anyone using the bogus "homosex-" oxymoron (homo=same+sex=opposite) is a brainwashed bigot controlled by Bwaney Fwank and Nazi Pelosi, and Pelosi's girls, the obamanation & Harriet Reid.
