ABC's "All My Children" was supposed to introduce a transgender character on its November 30 show. It's another new low for daytime television, otherwise known as the "soaps." But it's another first for the gay rights lobby, which has a stranglehold over much of the media. Perhaps the next step in this progression is for a character to come out as a pedophile simply exercising his or her "sexual orientation."

So "Accuracy in the Media" are the idiots behind the supposed "liberal bias" and they now tell us we're having gay issues shoved down our throats? Maybe Fox is a fair and balanced news outlet too?

It's hard to know which bit of this to spit at, but I guess ignoring it is the best policy.

    you people are just a bunch of narrow minded bigots. that is one of the biggest problems in this county. to many narrow minded idiots in society now a days. dont you people think that the transgendered are people to. and guess what they also have feelings to just like you all do. just because a show decides to feature a transgendered person to the show doesnt mean it is another all time low for the show. i think it is a good thing because it might open some of your eyes to some thing new. and you can learn to accept people for who they are and not what you think they should be.
