Quoted from Times Online:
CHRISTIAN groups led a furious campaign against Hollywood yesterday, accusing the Golden Globe Awards of promoting films with gay or ?leftist? themes to serve a political agenda.
The criticism was made after Brokeback Mountain, a film about the forbidden love between gay Wyoming cowboys, won four awards. Other winners included Philip Seymour Hoffman, named Best Actor for his portrayal of the homosexual writer Truman Capote; and Felicity Huffman, the Desperate Housewives actress who played a transsexual with a gay prostitute son in Transamerica.
?Once again, the media elites are proving that their pet projects are more important than profit,? Janice Crouse, of Concerned Women for America, said. ?None of the three movies ? Capote, Transamerica or Brokeback Mountain ? is a box office hit. Brokeback Mountain has barely topped $25 million (?14.2 million) in ticket sales. If America isn?t watching these films, why are they winning the awards??
Fucking gay-bashers. They're no better than racist pigs.
