Nifty

There is a nifty little button on most TVs. I'm sure yours has it, too. It changes the channel. Maybe you could try it sometime.

Freedom of Speech

Freedom of speech is nifty. If you bothered to actually read what I wrote, I didn't even complain about it, and I noted that I support freedom of speech for broadcasters and GLAAD.

The title of the message is the point. That's all. I didn't add "...and the programming stinks!"

Thanks for commenting.

Ummmm....

"How many characters in the programming monitored are devout Christians who are not portrayed any more negatively, on average, than others?"

How they're portrayed may possibly have something to do with how vehemently those devout christians work to curtail the rights of others (by voting their conscience, we're told).

Negative Portrayals

I see... so if someone is doing something that you don't like it is okay to portray them negatively on nationwide TV.

Well, there are a lot of people who think homosexual behavior and sexual promiscuity are immoral, so then I guess it is okay for characters who engage in those behaviors to be portrayed negatively because of it.
