Washington Post seems to think gay suicide is a two-sided issue | Media Matters for America
the Washington Post’s remarkably poor decision to post Tony Perkins’s falsehood laden, anti-gay screed on their On Faith blog (on National Coming Out Day nonetheless) was because they felt they needed to “cover both sides” of “bullying and gay suicide.” No, really, they’re serious. Apparently they hosted a Live Q & A chat with Dan Savage to discuss “bullying and gay suicide” and his “It Gets Better Project,” which is a You Tube channel Savage created in order to reach out to gay youths to prevent suicide. So, to balance Savage, the Post turned to Perkins to respond. Apparently to the Post, gay suicide is a two-sided issue.
