CNN is known for being an activist network on the subject of gay rights, so it comes as no surprise that their newest target is the Boy Scouts of America. As Newsbusters’ Matthew Philbin recently pointed out, CNN has close ties to GLAAD (Gays and Lesbians Allied Against Defamation) which might explain its decision to attack any organization that does not support its gay agenda.
The Boy Scouts organization, which does not allow openly gay individuals to join its organization as employees, volunteers or members, has been attacked viciously by CNN since it reaffirmed its position in June of this year. Since then, CNN has brought on numerous guests critical of the Scouts policy, including on Tuesday when it hosted Martin Sizmar, a former Eagle Scout who returned his medal because of their policy on gay individuals serving in their organization. The cable network allowed no one to defend the Scouts. [See video below. MP3 audio here.]
CNN Newsroom host Carol Costello provided an extremely biased and sympathetic interview to Sizmar, giving him a platform to slam the organization for a position it has held for decades...
Costello decided it was appropriate to ask Sizmar whether or not he was, “really surprised that the Boy Scouts reaffirmed its policy? Religion has always entered into this organization.” ...
Costello continued her attack by asking Sizmar whether or not she feels President Obama, who is the honorary president of the Boy Scouts of America, should reconsider having the office of commander in chief hold this position, given the Scouts' stance on homosexuality.
As is typical of CNN, no one was brought in to defend the Boy Scouts, and instead a one-sided ‘interview’ is conducted to prop up the gay agenda of CNN and its friends at GLAAD.

What is a CNN?
The freedom to form free organizations means exactly that. People have a right to form private organizations of like minded people and exclude whoever they choose. Don’t like it, form your own group. Homosexuals may not like it, but parents are wise and within their rights to keep their children away from homosexuals especially when they are not supervised. the gays can call it homophobia, most would say it is good parenting.
What part of “thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent” and what part of “morally straight” do they not understand?
they’re pushing this homo crap as much as they can because they know bozo the clown might not get elected and we might take control of the senate and house .
boy scouts, was all sorted out years ago, the couts has ruled so they bring all of this up again.
CFA, boy scouts, a cake maker, etc I really am pissed off with this issue.

CNN and other Sodomite Activists are attempting to convert current Cub Scouts and Boys Scouts from their heterosexual lifestyles to that of the homosexual lifestyle.
This leaves the Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts with only one option and that is to purge any members suspected of having homosexual tendencies or who have acted out in any manner which may indicate that they are Sodomites.
The Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts must remain pure with only members who are truly and actively heterosexual.
I believe that can be described as a clear and concise video representation of the word “equivocate”.
CNN is trash.
Read a story recently about a B&B couple-owners in Canada (don’t remember which province), who were sued because they would not host a lesbian couple, based on their core religious beliefs. The court sided with the lesbian couple, and instead of continuing to be held hostage under such circumstances, the owners closed the B&B.
Will they bring in the boys molested by the scout leaders?

In this insane world in which we live I cannot think of anything more insane that allowing a bunch of impressionable young men to be led by a known homosexual.
I congratulate Mr. Sizmor for his integrity in turning back his meadl because of the way gays are treated by the boy scouts.
Obviously if he feels queers should be in the Boy Scouts he had no business with that medal in the first place.
I am sure the Scouts are happy that he corrected their mistake in giving it to him.
sad isn;t it .
The homostapo closed down an adoption agency in MA called Catholic charities.
They’ve gone after so many places and what gets me is that we have freedom of religion not no fredom from homosexuals.
If they went after my store etc I’d close down and then reopen later as I’d never go with their sick perverted agenda.
CNN, NBC and other businesses like JC Penny seem to rather crash and burn than atually do what is right and what the people want.
I want news not a queer agenda.
I want a business to run as they want , not push an agenda like the fecal sex agenda.
Is that so frigging hard?
Yes it must be because to hard core lefty’s and the homostapo pushing their views and agenda is the be all and end all, nothing else matters but their agenda.
They can’t even debate based on facts , to them everything is view through emotions and they wonder why they over play their hand all the time, CFA, boy scouts, Occupy protest etc
Martin Sizmar has been living a lie !
Here is the crux of it, the key to the whole gay agenda, right in your piece and eloquently stated I might add:
“To discriminate has always meant to exercise good taste and critical judgment. Up until the 1940s and 1950s, discrimination was always a virtue, implying use of the higher faculties. Then a great hue and cry went up under the umbrella of “Civil Rights,” a demand for an end to “discrimination” based upon race, religion or national origin, in employment, housing or places of public accommodation. And the proponents of this movement employed Fabian techniques to gradually change the public perception of discrimination from acting rationally to the equivalent of “acting unfairly.””
I was contemplating paying for private pilot rating for him, but I guess a new pink wardrobe would be more appropriate.
