  • Fox News' Pro-Gay Bias
    Unfair, Unbalanced and Afraid: Fox News’ Growing Pro-Homosexual Bias and the National Gay & Lesbian Journalists Association (NLGJA) By Peter LaBarbera, Special Report for America’s Survival; August 2013 It is difficult to overstate the impact of wide-scale liberal media bias in the advancement of the pro-homosexual and pro-“transgender” revolution in American society. In the last two decades, media imbalance (and de facto censorship) on the issue has morphed into frequent media celebration of homosexuality -- thus leaving citizens starved for impartial and accurate information on this critical topic. “Journalism” has become pro-homosexual propaganda, with many media stories appearing as if they were written by LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) activists. By effectively joining the “gay” activists’ crusade, major media outlets – and even “conservative” Fox News -- have contributed greatly to the growing pro-homosexual political correctness in U.S. culture. This in turn has fueled even more aggressive militancy among pro-LGBT groups and bloggers who are lobbying the media to block social conservatives News Corp., the parent company of Fox News and from TV appearances, etc., on the Business Channels, has heavily funded the National grounds that such anti-homosexual- Lesbian and Gay Journalists Association (NLGJA), a agenda voices are “hate groups.” The pro-homosexual advocacy organization in result is the further degradation of newsrooms. Here a News Corp. endorsement ad journalism that has contributed to appears in the program for the 2009 NLGJA “LGBT Republican and conservative Media Summit.” ambivalence on issues like same-sex “marriage” and allowing open homosexuals in the military. So bad is the media groupthink on homosexuality that even self-described “conservatives” like Glen Beck and Tucker 1 Carlson have either endorsed or made positive soundings on “gay marriage,” or gone silent on LGBT issues.1 The degree to which the “mainstream” media have become promoters of the homosexual- and transgender activist movements is astonishing.
