'A top employee at an NBC-affiliated television station in Michigan was fired last week for expecting it to be a news outlet instead of an LGBT propaganda channel.' -L0neStarTrooper

News director Stanton Tang of WOOD-TV had assistant news director Amy Fox write a memo to employees about the need to limit and adjust coverage of Pride Month, specifically Pride events. Staff swore not to obey it, pressured Tang to resign, and complained that Nexstar Media Group, the station’s parent company, hadn’t immediately suspended Tang and Fox while investigating. One employee called it “absolute malpractice” to wait while “the emotions are still raw.

Every Pride Month, many LGBT stories from mainstream outlets follow the same obnoxious formula. Journalists cover events with little to no importance beyond obsessing over the sex lives and gender identities of random people and editorializing about the right-wing “hate” they are faced with. On the other hand, objections to nudity and sexual activity in front of children or the promotion of sex change procedures rarely receive air time.

An outlet called the Desk released a hit piece describing Tang’s memo as “anti-gay” without evidence and describing a history of complaints about him. Among them was the fact that he “consumed a significant amount of political news and conspiracy theories” and followed “controversial, right-of-center personalities” such as Daily Wire hosts Matt Walsh and Ben Shapiro.
