MoveOn.org Petition: ESPN Must 'Immediately Suspend' Broussard for 'Gay Bashing'
Breitbart Sports ^ | May 1, 2013 | Tony Lee

MoveOn.org has started a petition to get ESPN reporter Chris Broussard immediately suspended from the network for comments he made regarding Jason Collins's homosexuality, which Broussard said was a sin according to his personal Christian beliefs. The group said Broussard was engaging in "gay bashing."

The petition reads:

Chris Broussard's hateful attack on Jason Collins for being gay was an unacceptable misrepresentation of the Christian faith. ESPN must immediately suspend Chris Broussard and guarantee that their network will never again be used for gay bashing.

In its "petition background" statement, the left-wing organization says that after Jason Collins "emphasized the importance of his Christian faith in accepting himself and deciding to come out," ESPN's Broussard "attacked" Collins.

"Shockingly, so far ESPN is standing by Broussard, describing his tirade as 'a respectful discussion of personal viewpoints,'" they write....

It’s true.

It’s not something I talk about but yes. I am a Heterosexual. It was Vendome coming out that gave me the courage to finally admit that yes, I too was straight.

For years now I have lived with the guilt of fathering a child in Marriage. And that kinda makes it hard to deny. But I tried.

I just couldn’t lie to myself anymore TOL.

I am what I am.

I think at least two of your aliases got whacked yesterday.

Bad day for you.

At least two, you're right.

Lazamataz [I love you, honey] does not have to tell anyone that he’s a heterosexual man. It’s obvious with every word he utters.

Actually, I turned tri-sexual.

If a woman wants to try anything sexual, I’ll do it. :)
