On Thursday, GLAAD published its annual “Where We Are on TV” report, which examines the number of LGBTQ characters on television.In the opening paragraphs of the report, GLAAD President Sarah Kate Ellis states that television plays a crucial role in our culture when it comes to “changing hearts and minds.” She adds that according to a study, “less than one-quarter of Americans have a close friend or family member who is transgender,” which means many Americans “learn about trans people from what they see in television, movies, and news.”Due to this statistic, Ellis says, the casting of

That will guarante a reduced audience. And reduced revenues. They'll be calling soros and steyer every month to cover their losses.

They want 20% to represent less than 1%. They call that evenhanded.

From what I see, it will require a significant reduction to get down to that 20% level.

Who cares what they want? Why do these reality challenged people feel so empowered to demand the world be the way they want it to be.
Sit down and shut up for once in your obnoxious lives.

The totalitarian left now want to author all the programs on tv. Formerly, authors got ideas and wrote a story, and some of them were made into tv programs and movies. Today the tv and movies are for brainwashing, more so than National Socialism, or Communism, who would have much to learn from today's propagandists. I do not watch tv or movies, and have not for several decades.

Just another example of why I gave up watching television over 30 years ago. It was bad then and is worse now.

I watch mostly cooking shows, home improvement shows, Ghosthunters, college sports and the LivePD franchise series. GLAAD can pound sand, far as I'm concerned!!

This is one of the reasons I don't watch almost all TV shows. I would prefer 0% on TV. I don't need mentally ill people in LA perverting my family. You Qs are creating a vicious backlash.

That's a good way to kill off tv shows. We're already being subjected to alphabet characters and personally, I make sure I immediately flip to another channel. Pretty soon there won't be any channels left to flip to.

How about showing interesting people on TV? Boring, shallow people on TV are a guaranteed turn-off. This includes boring, shallow LGBTQI people.

So, in real life, maybe 2% are nomosexuals, and a heck of a lot of them are not admitted, do not make fools of themselves forcing their sexuality on others.
But in TVland we need to have 1 in 5 as homosexuals or mentally deranged men pretending to be women or vice versa?
Pure propaganda, and lunacy.
I already stopped watching NCIS: New Orleans because of the obnoxious PITA homosexual character that they added. I'll have no trouble dropping any others which start pushing more of this garbage.

I watch This Is Us and Rookie. That's it for regular cable. The rest of the time I do Hulu, sometimes Netflix and Firefox. We could do without about 50 o the cable channels but so far, you have to have them to get other benefits. Yeah, it costs a bit but we rarely go places or do things. I'm old and arthritis is taking over and my son is still suffering with a big bad arm injury which so far has needed two surgeries. So we don't have much else to do. If I had to choose, tho, I'd keep Firefox. It has all sorts of programming, some of which is christian based. Sweet little movies.

I've had the pleasure of receiving three LGBT-themed company emails last week. They're not content to keep Diversity Month (now Week) to just May; they are stepping it up for some reason. Thank God I'm nearing retirement.

I watch and record the First 48. They're mainly repeats some of them very old.
Mobile is the newest city on the First 48 rotation, and I was surprised and impressed w/their dept consisting of only four or five detectives w/a closing rate higher than the national average.
Very interesting how the dept's across the country differ in their approach from investigation to interview of suspects.
