Hollywood: Driving the Homosexual Agenda for 40 Years



Hollywood celebrities exuberantly celebrated President Obama’s recent declaration of support for gay marriage. But Hollywood did not have to come out of the closet and support homosexuality – it has long used its influence to purposely swing public opinion in favor of homosexuality.

For several decades, Hollywood has shown its overt support for homosexuality. Brokeback Mountain was nominated for Best Picture for its unabashedly sympathetic portrayal of a doomed gay relationship. Newt Gingrich’s half-sister officiated at a gay wedding on “Friends” in the 1990s. More recently, late night talk show host Conan O’Brian officiated at an actual gay wedding.

Homosexual advocacy on television first began to manifest itself in the 1970’s. In 1972, made for TV movie “That Certain Summer” featured Hal Holbrook and Martin Sheen as a gay couple. In 1973, “An American Family” was the first television show to feature an openly gay character (Lance Loud) “as an integral member of family life.” Billy Crystal played a gay character on the ABC sitcom “Soap” in 1977. Despite the fact that the show consistently lost money, ABC put on “Soap” for 4 seasons.

This push towards normalizing homosexuality reached full torque in later decades, coming to a head during the late 1990s. NBC sitcom “Friends” aired an episode with a lesbian wedding in 1996; the episode featured Newt Gingrich’s sister as the official celebrating the wedding. “Friends” producer Marta Kauffman told Ben Shapiro, for his book Primetime Propaganda that, “When we cast Candice Gringrich as the minister of that wedding, [was there] a bit of ‘f*** you’ in it to the right wing directly? Yeah.” Read more
In the United Kingdom the British Broadcasting Company (BBC) supports homosexuality as can be seen from its programming.
