5 days = 1 hour, 10 minutes, 23 seconds

of NBC’s Olympic coverage of the Sochi Winter Games, the network spent 4 minutes, 16 seconds of airtime on Russia’s anti-LGBT “propaganda” law.

1. Gee, you'd think it was about the athletic competition...

not NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams.

[William769]

2. No distinction. News is news.

You honestly believe that the athletic competition is the only thing they are covering?

Don't worry about it, I got your underlying message.

9. I don't even know how to respond to this.

3. Oh but the liberal media cares about us.

It is all about the money to these people.

[William769]

4. Exactly.

NBC can kiss my rainbow colored ass. They of course will have to wait in line. Unfortunately that line has gotten long since the Olympics.

[hrmjustin]

5. I have to say I was saddened by some of the Ops and replies I have seen here over the past few days.

I love the Olympics because I love curling but I just can't watch it this year.

6. Which one's?

The one's where we are told that we are "Heterophobia" or where we are the "Bullies" or where Gay people are not really being persecuted in Russia? There have been so many, it's been hard to keep up with them.

[hrmjustin]

7. Don't forget that we are the gay mafia now.

Or that the government did it on it's own. The people voted the parliment in.

[William769]

8. Oy!

Your right I did forget those.

[Behind the Aegis]

10. Don't forget...

...we are also thin-skinned because we can't take a little joke about "gays shoving their gay agenda down the throat's of others." We also are apparently so stupid we can't tell the difference between criticism of Russian policy and the Russians as a culture. We are so busy 'destroying' the Russian Federation we are ignoring the problems in Nigeria, Uganda, and our own collective backyards.

Speaking of Uganda, one can pop into the "viper's den", also known as The LGBT group and sign a petition to help LGBT Ugandans and/or sign the petition to the Congress to sign the International Violence Against Women Act. Not into the LGBT group, pop down to the Administrator's Group, colloquially known as the Jewish Group to find the same petitions.

Too sarcastic?
