Gay Activists Try to Stop TV Report on Lesbian Gang Attacks

from staff reports

High school students are the victims.

The Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) has apparently threatened to sue a Tennessee TV station for airing a report on lesbian gangs attacking students.

Jack Peck, general manager of WPTY in Memphis, said the station agreed to make some rewrites before the story aired in February, but that wasn't enough to satisfy GLAAD.

The story featured an interview with Shelby County Gang Unit specialist Beverly Cobb, who said girls are being attacked in high school bathrooms and stairwells by members of a gang called GTO or "Gays Taking Over."

“They are forcing themselves on our young girls in all our schools," Cobb said in the televised report.

The station gave GLAAD an advance viewing of the story. The group declared it “sensationalistic and homophobic.”

Peter LaBarbera, with Americans for Truth, said the station manager told him the group definitely did not want the story to air.

“A senior staffer told him several times, ‘We’re going to take you to court if you air this report,’ ” he said.

Similar gang activity is reported in New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C. Linda Jernigan, a former homosexual, said that’s why GLAAD is making such an issue of the Memphis story.

“They don’t want this type of information to get out," she told Family News in Focus, "because then they know people’s eyes will be opened, they’ll begin to see this whole situation for what it really is.”

Maybe someone should sue them for not airing it or whitewashing it. It should be aired if it is true.

It certainly should. The fact that the station has even agreed to rewrites is appalling.

1) appalling idea number 1 - some so-called journalist was glad of the excuse to make rewrites.

2) appalling idea number 2 - our judiciary is so screwed up that the station is actually in danger of massive legal fees or even of losing the case (if one is brought)

Maybe GLAAD should concentrate on turning the violent lez gangs into useful citizens instead of supporting their criminal lifestyle.

How would GLAAD have any standing to sue? Why doesn’t the station sue GLAAD? I don’t understand all the one-sided bullying nor the automatic cowering. Homosexcreeps are NOT that powerful and scary. Sheeesh.

So they didn't even attempt to deny it?

Not that any of us needed further proof that the homosexual agenda is incompatible with American freedoms and values.

Uh... perhaps they’re concerned because this story is just a little over the top:

I heard about this on the morning show of a local radio station here in the DC area recently. The host, who is slightly liberal, was shocked and incredulous but could not say very much when teachers and students from Prince George's County in Maryland called in to confirm the reports as true and accurate.
