Guest EXPAT Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 CBS apparently thinks a fresh gay kiss is way too risky to put on TV ... a widely-exposed lesbian kiss -- no problem. Bottom line -- CBS chickened out in trying to explain why "The Early Show" blurred Adam Lambert's AMA mano-y-mano kiss, but minutes later ran an uncensored clip of Madonna making out with Britney Spears. CBS said, "The Mandonna image is very familiar and has appeared countless times including many times on morning TV." By contrast, CBS explained, "The Adam Lambert image is a subject of great current controversy, has not been nearly as widely disseminated, and for all we know, may still lead to legal consequences." This just another example of rampant homophobia. [As an aside, it drives me nuts that I have to re-log in every time I come to this message center!!!] Quote
