Bert's ties to Osama go way back. Look closely at this OBL Support rally....right next to Osama's ear, on the big sign that they are carrying. Yep.

Ironic, with Ernie being Jewish and all.

Dear Laura Italiano and Michelle Gotthelf,

I have been strongly urged to contact you to DEMAND that you change the online version of your recent headline, "EVIL LESBIAN MOM LEFT TODDLER TO DIE SLOW DEATH" because it is just hurtful. I have also been urged to explain to you that I will NOT TOLERATE your disrespect for journalistic standards. It is disgraceful! Not only is the word LESBIAN in some way irrelevant to the case, the use of that word is biased. And also hurtful. Kindly change the online version of the headline to the less inflammatory, journalistically more objective: "EVIL MOM LEFT TODDLER TO DIE SLOW DEATH."

By changing the online version of a back issue headline, I will be satisfied in some way. If you leave the headline as is, you are contributing to anti-lesbian violence and you are telling people it is okay to physically assault lesbians.

I do not read your paper, but felt the need to contact you because Rashad Robinson said you had been inflammatory and irresponsible and he said you had been these things "once again" and if that's true, it's just hurtful.

Sincerely,

Zombi GLAAD-McSheep

NAACP would so totally react. How does a person's race or orientation have anything to do with their state of mental health? Have you ever seen a headline read "Evil Straight Mother Lets Toddler Die A Slow Death"?

umm the NAACP would not react. Al Sharpton might react, but that's cause he's a race baiter.

al sharpton is the naacp, the congressional black caucus, the national negro college fund, 100 blacks in law enforcement, the black panthers, the fruit of islam, acorn, the ebony queens motorcycle club and kappa alpha psi rolled into one wavy haired and sweat-suited bundle of chocolate power!

"Evil Straight Mother Lets Toddler Die A Slow Death"?

No, you wouldn't see it because a straight mother would be the most common assumption since, far and away, most mothers are straight.

Exactly. It's a hetero biased world, in case you didn't notice.
