compassionate conservatism needs to be better reflected on tv!

Bozell: Glee is Too Realistic : Dispatches from the Culture Wars:

The endlessly amusing Brent Bozell, chief of the Conservative Movement Cultural Complaints Division, aka the Media Research Center, has a column at Townhall complaining that the TV show Glee showed a couple of jocks picking on glee club kids for being (or at least being perceived as) gay.

How does "Glee" creator Ryan Murphy make it tilt into utter intolerance? It isn't through smash-mouth indoctrination. The treatments are subtle but unmistakable...

The only characters on the show disapproving of homosexuality are vicious school bullies. In the May 25 episode, two brutish football players threatened to pummel the openly gay and riotously effeminate character Kurt for dressing up like a girl.

Yeah, because that never happens. High school football players never attack the choir kids over their sometimes real and sometimes falsely perceived homosexuality. Who would ever think to put such subtle intolerance into a script about high school? I mean, other than anyone who's ever been to high school? How dare they accurately portray a scenario played out in school every single day all over the country!

So he's trying the compassionate approach - please be realistic: not all bigots are big bad men who use physical intimidation to suppress TEH GAY. Some of us bigots are much more subtle than that and TV should reflect that reality.
