Rachel, not everybody is as fascinated by issues related to teh gay as you are.

20 minutes on your show about this discredited doctor?

Rachel, I love you. I have a monster girl crush on you. But sometimes you get blinders on when it comes to teh gay. We get it. You care. Just not that much.

Much regard.

She often does in-depth reports. I find it odd you attribute it to a fascination with "teh gay." fishwax Apr 2012 #17

Yes, I care.

But maybe you could enlighten me on just how ignorant you think I am...

page? I agree sometimes it is much but I do understand why she covers it so much. She is the only one. So we need to be patient with her.

informative.

I had not know about Dr. Spitzer and his two very different views on homosexuality.

I didn't see the report in question, but "conversion" therapy causes extensive harm and merits in-depth reporting, especially since LGBT issues are generally underreported in the mainstream media.
