Last night on Channel 6


Is this what we want to see on the tv scene?
I was shocked last night of channel six carry the content of 20-20.
As I was flipping thru the channels, I came to channel six, where to gays were kissing sitting on a public park bench. It seems that the media and people in government is indorsing this lifestyle as we can’t seem to turn our TV’s on without seeing this sort of thing. Even thru this show is on late I am sure that kids were able to see it. This kind of broadcasting is not acceptable in the minds of most Americans. I hope they do better selecting in the future. I would be interested to know how many complaints they received about this program. I also sent my complaint to channel 6 and also to 20-20.



Two years ago, ABC News hired two actors, a man and a woman, to publicly display their affection for each other by kissing in public at a restaurant. Reactions from other restaurant-goers varied; some onlookers enjoyed the sight of young love, while others lost their appetite.

This year, we once again decided to explore how the public responds to public displays of affection -- but this time, our couples were gay.
ABC News asked two couples, Kaolin and James, and Ashby and Leslie, to sit on park benches in Verona, N.J., and then in Birmingham, Ala., to see if there were any differences in reaction among passersby in the two regions of the country. Although all four individuals were actors, showing their love and affection for each other was far from acting. Kaolin and James have been in a committed relationship for two years, while Ashby and Leslie are a married couple who have been together for eight years

If you do not want to see this on TV, than your view should hold true for straight couples too. Do you feel the same for both?

I think that it is just the same as all the movies and programs on the TV that show other (straight) couples who do the same thing, and we let our children see that. It's all the same, just people in love who deserve their right to be in love, and I don't see why people think that that is any different from this.
