Protest GLAAD?
Transexual Menace protested HRC for lack of inclusion in their advocacy back in 2005, I think maybe it’s time to protest GLAAD for the same thing. In a post entitled : GLAAD About Hate Speech, I discussed the viciousness of Michael Savage’s most remarks concerning the murder of Ruby Ordenana.

Why this article may matter
Community significance
“Protest GLAAD?” may matter to community readers because it preserves a first-person or testimonial account connected to community and organizing, while also engaging religion and morality. Such accounts can document how an issue was understood and experienced from within the period or community being discussed.
Historical significance
As a publication record from 2007 at Transadvocate.com, “Protest GLAAD?” provides dated evidence of how community and organizing was being argued in relation to religion and morality. Comparing it with earlier and later records can reveal changes in vocabulary, evidence, and emphasis.
Policy significance
No dominant policy frame was detected in “Protest GLAAD?.” Its policy relevance, when present, is therefore likely indirect: the article’s treatment of community and organizing may shape later arguments about institutions or public practice rather than proposing a specific rule.
