People who have been reading this blog for some time know that I have been monitoring and demanding that the Dr. Phil show refrain from using
homophobic,
biphobic, and
transphobic topics on their show as they have done several times in the past. I was also quick to praise them for their attempt to create
positive and LGBT-affirming coverage.
Over the past several months I have continued to monitor their upcoming shows to make sure that topics such as those in the past are not scheduled. I am pleased to say that there seems to have been major improvement, although instead of negative LGBT coverage, there now is no LGBT coverage.
Make 2010 the year Dr. Phil tackles topics sensitive to the LGBT community in a fair, affirming, and positive way!
Sign the Twitter
petition demanding positive coverage, and send the show a
direct email.
May you all have a fun and safe time tonight wherever and however you choose to celerate the New Year. Let's move forward into 2010 more energized and ready to live, love, and thrive as openly queer people and allies.
