SANFRAN POLICE SET UP BARRICADES IN THE CASTRO...

By Ameriqueer
...The decision from the California Supreme Court is going to come TOMORROW or TUESDAY, from the looks of things--the SFPD started setting up barricades in The Castro on Tuesday.   THURSDAY (TOMORROW) is the 30th anniversary of the WHITE NIGHT RIOTS that took place after Harvey Milk's death.  My friends Harry and Wayne were there, and they said it was something else.  FRIDAY is Harvey Milk's birthday.  Temperatures are boiling over in California.  I hope that the Supreme Court understands the timing of all of this.  With the marriage wins in Iowa and the East Coast, and the historical significance of this week to gay Californians, NOT TO MENTION the shift in energy in California to a more radical, militant defiance, I'm nervous about what this is going to look like.

TONIGHT I'M GOING TO BE ON THE RADIO.  An AZ gay entertainment show called Lundon Calling with Ace Lundon, great gay activist and friend.  I've got Skype all set up, and practiced with Ace last night.  If you're on the EAST COAST tune in at 10pm.  CENTRAL, 9pm.  MOUNTAIN (Drew), 8pm.  PACIFIC, 7pm.  Brant, your family can listen to me at about 5pm.  Not that they will.  But they could.  I wish I could listen to me at 5pm too, because that would mean I'm in Hawaii!  THIS POST HERE HAS INSTRUCTIONS ABOUT HOW TO LISTEN!

Remember, the link you click to listen to me depends on what you'll listen to me on--WinAmp, Media Player, RealPlayer or Quicktime.  Email the WEBMASTER right away if you have problems connecting, because they want to know if their stream is having issues.  

TUNE IN AND EMAIL ME IF YOU'LL BE LISTENING, SO THAT I CAN GIVE YOU A SHOUT OUT!

TOAST TO ALL CALIFORNIANS WHO LOVE EQUALITY!

In anti-gay attack, AIM falsely asserts "pedophile" Jennings was "teaching 14-year-old boys" about sexual practices | Media Matters for America

In anti-gay attack, AIM falsely asserts "pedophile" Jennings was "teaching 14-year-old boys" about sexual practices | Media Matters for America : "In attacking the media for allegedly insufficient coverage of Obama administration official Kevin Jennings, a blogger for Accuracy in Media, which purports to 'set the record straight on important issues that have received slanted coverage' -- and which has a record of antagonism toward gays -- smeared Jennings as a 'pedophile' and falsely claimed that '[v]ideos have surfaced of Jennings teaching 14-year-old boys the dangerous sexual practice of 'fisting,' and discussing with them the particulars of oral sex.' In fact, Jennings did not conduct that seminar and, in fact, reportedly criticized it when he became aware of its content." AIM is a crock. They're nothing more than Republican mouthpieces.

NEW BILERICO GUEST POST: What the GLAAD Network Report Means

By Ameriqueer
MY NEWEST CONTRIBUTION TO BILERICO; PLEASE VISIT BILERICO.COM FOR THE ENTIRE POST! Yesterday, GLAAD released its Network Responsibility Index report for 2009, ranking the top broadcast and cable networks on their LGBT inclusivity in programming. ABC led the broadcast networks this year with depictions like Ugly Betty 's gay Ken-doll Marc, played by Michael Urie, among other depictions on other shows. HBO led the cable networks with shows like gay-created True Blood , No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency , and Big Love ; with over 42% of programming being LGBT inclusive. We're not surprised that there were so many cable networks that ranked high on the index; #2 Showtime's programming consisted of 24% LGBT-inclusive programming, #3 TNT dedicated 19% of its hours to LGBT-inclusive content, #4 MTV 17% (really, only 17?), and #5 Lifetime—the in-denial fourth gay network—had 14%. This was all while the Network's rankings topped out at ABC's 24% and went down from there to C
