I wonder about the priorities of the mainstream media
every day. This morning the big story is
that an NFL football player told a comic that Gay players aren’t welcome in the
locker room. Not really surprising, is
it? I’ll bet an anonymous poll of
straight players would find that they’re not any more enthusiastic about
welcoming a homosexual than the cheerleaders would be about showering with
linebackers. TV and radio is giving it a
lot of attention. At the same time…the
President’s choice for secretary of defense, Chuck Hagel, is undergoing
confirmation in the Senate. Hagel once complained about a new ambassador who
he said “was aggressively gay”. I’m willing to bet that none of the major media
raise that one at all. And which is more
significant…the comments of a football player or the man who’s about to take
over the most powerful military force on planet earth.
