Why you obsessed on fags, USA? Have you been raped by a fag? Had a boyfriend
stolen by a fag? Had to compete with a fag for a girl? I'll bet no. So why
do you CARE that Bravo shows things like Queer Eye? If you don't like it,
don't watch! I'm going to make a guess that the network didn't make these
shows for viewers like you in the first place.

The OLN has turkey hunting on. Now there's something that is more what you
might like.

And people would be bored to death with the "Leave It To Beaver" - type
shows that'd be on the air. Tell me, PAX has a whole bunch of 'family safe'
non-gay programming on it's network. Can you name any of those shows? I
can't.

From what I hear, alot of the network news departments are getting fed up
with being cobbled to the entertainment departments in their respective
networks. At this point where they are driven by ratings, money concerns
drive the news to be very mediocre. Peter Jennings recently spoke out about
this. Funny thing is, some of the most conservative news reporting, in that
it is the least 'hollywood' glam spun out, is ironically, shows like The
News Hour on PBS..
