After a meeting with gay and lesbian activists on Thursday, NBC's "Today" show said it is changing the rules for its annual wedding contest to allow same-sex couples to apply for a ceremony conducted on morning TV.
NBC extended the deadline for applications until Monday. Already thousands of couples have expressed interest in the on-air wedding, which the top-rated morning show has sponsored for a decade, a spokeswoman said.
"We're thrilled that `Today' show's `Modern Wedding Contest' now recognizes what most fair-minded Americans have already concluded — a wedding celebrates love and commitment, whether the spouses are straight or gay," said Jarrett Barrios, president of the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation.

“Can Chris Matthews and Anderson Cooper marry or are their network backgrounds incompatible?”
Chris Matthews only dates black men.
No. By it's participation, NBC is PROMOTING deviancy. And promoting legal same sex unions. And that will NOT be the end of it. IF they get away with it, it is one more step down the path to a totally immoral society. Anyone not speaking out against it is allowing it to progress. Silence is acquiescence.
F-IN SICKENING
My TV is off 99.9% of the time. When it is powered
up, it serves as a hi-def monitor for a BluRay player.
If commercial TV went off the air, I would have to
hear the good news from some other source who
actually cares.
never watch those 3 local channels, they make me sick and how anyone can watch them is beyond me
My TV was unplugged 2 and a half years ago. It still sits on the floor where we set it down when we moved. I only miss gardening/landscaping shows and Holmes on Homes. Nothing else.
in the late 60’s commie manifesto it states that homosexuality should be pushed as to destroy America from within,
They knew back then that the backbone of this great country was the normal traditional family.
For 40 years they have been trying and trying to make it look normal.
We have to and I do make it a point that homosexuality is not normal or natural if the subject gets around to it , even if I have just met the people .
9 out of 10 people agree and the ones which do not just shrug their shoulders.
“What fair-minded Americans have already concluded”—mankind can conclude whatever they want...but Marriage is a sacred covenant that is between G-d and a man and a woman. The G-d of Abraham, Issac and Jacob never changes, and He said he would give them over to their own lusts...So they can diddle themselves to their hearts content, but in the end there will be judgment, (as we all will be judged.)
I ain’t watching the Today show anymore. Never cared for that John Cameron Swayze any how.
“NBC’s “Today” show said it is changing the rules for its annual wedding contest to allow same-sex couples to apply for a ceremony conducted on morning TV.”
60% of the staffers at NBC News are gay, lesbian, or transgendered, WAY out of percentage with the general population.
Why does this surprise anyone?
Where have you been?? John Cameron Swayze is anchoring the 15-minute NBC nightly news. Dave Garroway and J. Fred Muggs are hosting the "Today Show" these days ;-)
-The next thing to fall will be the requirement of only two people.-
All part of the original platform of these freaks!
The 1972 Gay Rights Platform
http://www.article8.org/docs/general/platform.htm
Repeal of all legislative provisions that restrict the sex or number of persons entering into a marriage unit; and the extension of legal benefits to all persons who cohabit regardless of sex or numbers.
How are they going to do this, since the reason Today first decline is because two homos can’t get married in New York?
What *fairy*-minded Americans have concluded.
Hitting the OFF button on a TV set is the moral equivalent of flushing a commode. The trouble is,the stench of our TV-ized culture is still there.
Not really. If enough people do it, the program goes away. Cash is king.
“If enough people do it”
Granted. But not enough people will, IMO.
