Fox News: Gays “Indoctrinating” Your Kids
Fox News: Gays “Indoctrinating” Your Kids
By Trudy Ring


While Fox News has largely ignored recent debates over marriage equality, it hasn’t suddenly become gay-friendly — it’s merely focusing on a new target, what it calls “indoctrination” of children with positive information about LGBT people, according to an analysis by Equality Matters.

In a Thursday post on the media watchdog group’s blog, Carlos Maza writes, “Over the past few months, Fox has developed a specific interest in promoting the myth that gays and lesbians are attempting to turn kids gay by indoctrinating them into the ‘homosexual lifestyle.’”

He cites Fox’s reaction to California legislation that would require public schools to teach students about the contributions of LGBT people, with Fox commentators calling the move a “shocking lesson plan” that would bring “propaganda” into the classroom. Fox talking heads, he notes, have also objected to a gender diversity lesson presented at one California school and gay-inclusive messages in advertising and entertainment. “In April, the network even invited the American Family Association’s Bryan Fischer to discuss whether Glee was a form of ‘product placement’ for homosexuality,” Maza writes.

1. Just Think of It...a Whole News Network Spreading Homophobia
and hatred, suspicion and distrust of people who are gay. Think about this seriously... the Germans did this too to their political enemies in order to gain COMPLETE control. If it isn't the gays, it's another group of people, and where does it all stop?

FOX needs to be shut down and BANNED!

7. More like Fox has to indoctrinate our kids to hate gays or else they lose the fight
Anytime you hear someone claim that gays are indoctrinating kids to support the 'homosexual agenda' ask that person how 3% of the population is able to 'indoctrinate' two thirds of young people to support 'the homosexual agenda'. (The 3% is the low end estimate of the number of people in the US who are gay).

If they really think about it, they'll realize that their own lie is impossible.
