Eugene Delgaudio Asks Free Network Time To Respond to Another Attack on the Boy Scouts of America
"The Wrap" website is reporting pro-homosexual GLAAD Protests Nat Geo's Collaboration With Boy Scouts
The Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation(GLAAD) is launching an irrational assault against the Boy Scouts of America and National Geographic.
PA President Eugene Delgaudio asks: " How on Earth does the BSA make homosexuals suffer? This is another example of the deranged thinking we must oppose. The network should post a disclaimer that asks people to donate their life savings to legal defense of the BSA so that insane anti-Scout stalkers who abuse public decency can be defended against."
GLAAD, the pro-homosexual anti-Scout group, is backing a petition protesting National Geographic Channel's collaboration with the Boy Scouts of America, a group that does not allow openly gay members.
The advocacy group backed a Change.org petition started by Will Oliver, a 20-year-old gay Eagle Scout, that calls on Nat Geo to air a disclaimer clarifying the network's views before each episode of its new series, "Are You Tougher than a Boy Scout." It debuts this spring.
"That National Geographic would brush aside countless gay teens suffering at the hands of the BSA, shrugging off injustice as just another 'point of view,' is irresponsible," GLAAD president Herndon Graddick said in a statement. "By airing this program, National Geographic is providing support and publicity to an organization that harms young people simply because of who they are.
If the network is truly committed to standing by its non-discrimination practices, it should have no problem airing a disclaimer to that effect."
PA feels viewers should actually be provided links to this or other pro-Scout groups.
