CBS is running PSAs put out by the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against
Defamation; the Traditional Values Coalition is outraged, of course,
and has sent out an ACTION ITEM to their membership to bombard CBS with
complaints. I recommend contacting CBS to support the PSAs.

CBS And GLAAD Use PSAs To Label Critics Of Homosexual Sex As Bigots
Traditional Values Coalition
http://www.traditionalvalues.org/modules.php?sid=2706
May 2, 2006 – CBS and the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation
(GLAAD) have teamed up to produce a series of Public Service
Announcements (PSAs) that will be dropped into a day-time soap opera
promoting teen homosexuality.
The CBS/GLAAD PSA will be included in the CBS daytime soap opera “As
The World Turns” on May 9. This particular show includes a teenager who
tells his parents that he is a homosexual. The PSA will tell viewers
that they should take a stand against “discrimination” and “prejudice”
faced by homosexuals, bisexuals, and transgendered people
(cross-dressers, transsexuals, and homosexual drag queens).
This PSA is part of GLAAD’s propaganda campaign called “Be an Ally and
a Friend” effort to promote homosexuality, bisexuality and
transsexuality as normal sexual behaviors.
GLAAD is one of the most dangerous organizations in America. It has a
powerful influence over Hollywood and the print media. The group has
published its 7th edition of a “Media Guide” that tells journalists
what terms they should use in describing homosexuality. It also tells
them to avoid giving fair treatment to organizations that are critical
of homosexual behavior. In short, this media guide teaches journalists
to censor opposing viewpoints. Read this GLAAD media guide to
understand why you do not get an accurate portrayal of homosexuality in
the mainstream media. GLAAD is controlling what you read and see.
GLAAD also meets with script writers, directors, and other powerful
Hollywood executives to shape the kinds of messages Americans receive
in TV programming and in movies about homosexuality.
Your voice matters! Send a strong message to CBS. It is important for
Hollywood and network executives to hear your concerns. In 2002, for
example, TVC exposed the efforts of Nickelodeon to promote the
homosexual agenda. More than a quarter of a million emails went to
Nickelodeon to protest the promotion of homosexual “families” by Linda
Ellerbee and hosted by Rosie O’Donnell. They were forced to tone down
the show because of the incredible public outrage.
GLAAD and groups like the Gay, Lesbian and Student Education Network
have done their job well in censoring accurate information about
homosexual behavior in the media.
The Hollywood Reporter noted in April, 2005 that “GLAAD and others who
carry out its mission meet with editorial boards, casting directors,
producers, writers and directors, where they discuss what they are
thinking about, what they are working on and offer suggestions on ways
to accurately reflect the lifestyle.”
GLAAD is serving as a censor and a gatekeeper on what information
Americans receive in the mainstream media about homosexual behavior! It
urges journalists and Hollywood producers to promote homosexuality,
while condemning any organization or individual who is critical of
homosexuality.
GLAAD equates opposition to homosexuality as bigotry, prejudice and
discriminatory attitudes—and now CBS is joining with them in promoting
their homosexual agenda—to normalize homosexual sex for teenagers!
TVC Urges CBS To Provide Equal Time
Traditional Values Coalition Chairman Rev. Louis P. Sheldon has written
a letter of concern to Mr. Leslie Mooves, President and CEO of CBS
asking that he provide TVC with equal time to respond to GLAAD’s PSA.
Rev. Sheldon told Moonves: “Most major religions denominations consider
homosexuality a sinful and disordered behavior. GLAAD calls these
Americans discriminatory and hateful because of their religious
beliefs.
“At the very least, I believe CBS should apply an equal time standard
to this sort of activity. My organization, Traditional Values
Coalition, would be willing to discuss some sort of message which would
provide the balance lacking from GLAAD’s anti-religious attacks.”
TAKE ACTION: Use TVC’s CapWiz email system to write a letter of concern
to Mr. Moonves asking for CBS to give equal time to TVC to present an
alternative viewpoint on homosexual behavior. Forward this alert to
your friends!
GLAAD only wants a positive portrayal of homosexuality presented to the
American people over public airwaves. This is a betrayal of the public
trust. CBS should be willing to present a fair and balanced message on
homosexuality—and not promote only one viewpoint on this controversial
topic.
Go to TVC’s Media Guide section and click on CBS News to create your
letter to Mr. Moonves: Traditional Values Coalition -- Media Guide.
PLEASE FORWARD THIS TO YOUR FRIENDS.

CBS/GLAAD Scandal Heats Up
Traditional Values Coalition
http://www.traditionalvalues.org/modules.php?sid=2709
May 4, 2006 – On May 2, TVC issued a call to action to supporters to
contact CBS to ask that they provide equal time for opposing viewpoints
on homosexuality. CBS has announced it will help the Gay and Lesbian
Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) air Public Service Announcements
promoting the normalization of homosexuality—and condemning critics as
intolerant and bigoted.
CBS and GLAAD announced a joint venture to air PSAs on “As The World
Turns” on May 9. This episode will feature a teenager who tells his
parents that he’s a homosexual.
GLAAD is a notorious anti-Christian group that exerts a powerful
influence over what we read and see on TV and in movies about
homosexual conduct. GLAAD has issued a Media Guide that instructs
reporters on how to report on homosexuality and how to avoid giving
critics a fair hearing. GLAAD also meets with script writers, casting
directors, and producers to create pro-homosexual programming on TV and
in films.
In April, 2005, The Hollywood Reporter described the power of GLAAD in
the film industry. It noted: “GLAAD and others who carry out its
mission meet with editorial boards, casting directors, producers,
writers and directors, where they discuss what they are thinking about,
what they are working on and offer suggestions on ways to accurately
reflect the lifestyle.”
GLAAD acts as a censor of what Americans can read and see about the
homosexual lifestyle and dangers associated with this behavior.
After TVC issued its call to action, CBS’s President Leslie Moonves was
receiving so many emails that the email service suffered a malfunction
and had to be repaired late in the day.
To learn more details about this TVC effort, access these articles: “
CBS & ANTI-CHRISTIAN GLAAD TEAMING UP” “ CBS And GLAAD Use PSAs To
Label Critics Of Homosexual Sex As Bigots” and send an email to Mr.
Moonves through CapWiz.
Use TVC’s report, “Sexual Orientation: Fixed Or Changeable?” for
talking points in your letter. You’ll learn that homosexuals, who for
years argued that they were “born gay” and couldn’t change, are now
arguing that sexual orientation is flexible and is on a continuum from
male to female. If sexual orientation is flexible, then homosexuality
is not inborn, but is a behavior that can be modified by the person.
