i'm sorry l;ike i said the matter has been adresed by my parents and the person that
didi this to me, he is now grounded for a very long time and can't go on the computer
till the end of the year, so i'm sorry all i wish to do is get off this mailing list
and to be left alone to wonder the wonders of Cyber space.

Subject: ABC and Homos
this message was written by a guy named t.d. barnes. its offensive, if you
dont want to hear some oppression, dont read it, but on the listserv it was
originally posted it caused people to unite for the cause of homosexuality
and against the oppression of corporate america. you can voice your
concerns here on the list or to t.d. directly at: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
i thought it might be a good discussion topic regarding the systematic
oppression of women.
nothing past this line was written by me (nor was the title written by me).
> I think that ABC is just trying to protect its viewing base. I saw something
>that really amazed me on CNN yesterday. A poll of "Ellen" viewers was taken,
>and a majority, over 60%, said that they would not watch the "coming out"

>audience is going to cost ABC. I predict that "Ellen"'s ratings will be
>headed for the basement.
> This is not about "Gay Rights". It's about what Television viewing
>American's want to see. It is a business decision...NOT A POLITICAL or SOCIAL

>"BEHAVIORS". (That's' right, BEHAVIOR, not some genetic trait like skin

>Don't pursue policy is one thing that Clinton got right. A
>soldier/sailor/marine/airman that reveals an unacceptable behavior like
>homosexuality, beastiality, pedophilia, or just dressing up like Zsa Zsa Gabore
>will face consequences for choosing that particular behavior. In my
