3. Exposing right-wing closet cases.

Well, the ones who are virulently anti-gay. It highlights a number of politicians and scandals, including McGreevy.

Edit:


Film Poster
Synopsis
Academy Award nominated filmmaker Kirby Dick (This Film Is Not Yet Rated) delivers a searing indictment of the hypocrisy of closeted politicians who actively campaign against the LGBT community they covertly belong to. OUTRAGE boldly reveals the hidden lives of some of our nation’s most powerful policymakers, details the harm they've inflicted on millions of Americans, and examines the media's complicity in keeping their secrets.

6. I hope they didn't beat up on McGreevy too badly.

His transgressions were pretty minor compared to a lot of other political sex scandals.

9. they didn't.......

In fact, the McGreevey interviews were the best parts of it!

The whole idea of the show is to say that politicans who are also closet gays create and vote for anti-gay legislation. Since McGreevey is already out, he doesn't fit that description.

McGreevey looked much more human than many of the others who can't even accept that they're in the closet! Or if they do accept it, they're certainly not going public with that info!!

11. That's good. I know some people have a grudge against him over his exploits and publicity. nt

5. You can watch HBO online at this link.

If I'm not mistaken it's the Eastern time zone feed, so I think Outrage is replaying in about an hour. http://www.tvpc.com/Channel.php?ChannelID=1866

10. Brilliant movie!

I was surprised at how the media sensationalist whores keep quiet about so many closeted gays. They have no problem in censoring media clips to hide the fact that politicians like Charlie Crist for instance, is gay. What irked me the most is that these people live the lie and deny their true selves to better their chances to become very powerful in the US politics, and then blatantly misuse that power to hurt the gay community.

According to Kirby Dick (what a name!!) these closeted gays see themselves as strong and as people with a lot of backbone if they continue being in the closet, unlike the weak ones who come out.

13. Watching it now

This is pretty good, although not much new info. But still good to see it get out there, and I hope people not in the GLBTQ community watch it.
