    Gay Games A promotional piece for by Jim Buzinski the first Gay Games, then called the Gay Olympic Games, in 1982. Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Courtesy Federation of Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Gay Games. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com The Gay Games is a quadrennial sporting and cultural event designed for the gay and lesbian community. The brainchild of former Olympic decathlete Tom Waddell, the Games were first held in San Francisco in 1982. Some 1,300 athletes participated in the first competition. Since then, the event has become a lucrative attraction that cities bid for the privilege of hosting. The Games pump millions of dollars into the host city's local economy. Waddell had originally intended to call the competition the Gay Olympics, but nineteen days before the start of the first games the United States Olympic Committee obtained a restraining order, forbidding the use of that name. The USOC asserted that it had sole rights to use the name Olympics. Waddell, noting that the USOC had raised no objections to other competitions using the name, told Sports Illustrated: "The bottom line is that if I'm a rat, a crab, a copying machine or an Armenian I can have my own Olympics. If I'm gay, I can't.'' Waddell, who died from complications of AIDS in 1987, conceived the Games as a means of promoting the spirit of inclusion and healthy competition in athletics. As his biographer Dick Schaap explains, "Tom wanted to emphasize that gay men were men, not that they were gay, and that lesbian women were women, not that they were lesbians.

    A Journalistic Series About Homosexuality in Sports

    WHO’S ON THE PLAYING FIELD?: A JOURNALISTIC SERIES ABOUT HOMOSEXUALITY IN SPORTS Brian Conlin A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the School of Journalism and Mass Communication Chapel Hill 2010 Committee: Adviser: Walter Spearman Professor Jan Yopp Reader: John Thomas Kerr Jr. Distinguished Professor Richard Cole Reader: Professor Karla A. Henderson © 2010 Brian Conlin ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT BRIAN CONLIN: Who’s on the Playing Field?: A Journalistic Series about Homosexuality in Sports (Under the direction of Jan Yopp, Dr. Richard Cole and Dr. Karla Henderson) The number of openly gay and lesbian athletes has boomed since the 1980s. The Gay Games is one example of this. The first Gay Games in 1982 had 1,300 participants. By 1994, the Gay Games drew 11,000 participants. In three articles, this master’s thesis examines various aspects of gays and lesbians in sports. The first article covers the Gay Games. It includes information about its supporters and protestors, a brief history and a look ahead to the upcoming Gay Games and beyond. The second article profiles a rugby player on the Carolina Kodiaks, one of two gay rugby teams in North Carolina. The third article examines how journalists, especially those in sports departments, cover LGBT issues. The thesis aims to explore the issues of the gay and lesbian community as they pursue sports and to show that LGBT issues in sport will become more important as society becomes more tolerant.

    Gilles Marini Says He’

    Gilles Marini Says He’s “Blessed to Have the Chance to Be a Father – It’s Magical” By Kristin Mattern French-born actor Gilles Marini has made a lasting impression on American fans. He’s memorable for his beloved turn as Dante in Sex and the City: The Movie, his recurring roles on shows like Brothers & Sisters, Ugly Betty, and Nip Tuck, and his stellar appearances on the 8th and 15th seasons ofDancing with the Stars. As evidenced by his diverse resume, his brave and beautiful man seems daunted by nothing. Who can forget his full frontal nude scene as Dante? The former model is currently gracing the small screen as Angelo Sorrento on Switched at Birth, where he tackles the challenging role of an estranged father who has reentered his daughter’s life — a role that’s close to this family man’s heart. Related Link: ‘Brothers and Sisters’ Star Celebrates One Year Wedding Anniversary On ABC Family’s hit show, Marini plays the biological dad of Bay Kennish, who comes back into her life after abandoning his wife Regina when he thought she had cheated on him. A father himself, the star says that being a parent doesn’t affect how he plays the character: “I am the polar opposite of Angelo when it comes to being a father. I think he just landed on this planet and became one sixteen years too late. It’s understandable to see why he is the way he is, based on his past and he’s childhood, but that also makes him human and interesting.” Marini and wife Carole, who married in 1988, have a son Georges and a daughter Julianna.

Abstract Many members of the LGBT community have viewed the Gay Games as an opportunity to challenge dominant ideologies concerning sexuality and sport participation. Members of the mass media, however, play a potentially important role in how the event is perceived by the general public. Therefore, the primary purpose of the current study was to examine how the Gay Games have been framed in newspaper coverage. A total of 646 articles published in the United States covering the eight Gay Games events held during the 32-year period of 1980 to 2012 were analyzed in terms of three aspects of framing: (1) the types of issues highlighted, (2) the sources of information cited, and (3) the manner in which either episodic or thematic narratives were employed.
