Gay Guide to New York City Too Gay For Apple’s iPhone Store

Apple has rejected the iPhone app “Gay New York: 101 Can’t-Miss Place,” because, appropriately it features gay things about New York. Like go-go boys. And a snapshot of a naked gay sculpture painting on display at the restaurant Buddakan. Oh, and a picture of Sarah Palin making an ugly face. So not only did the app’s creator, travel writer Anthony Grant, manage to run afoul of Apple’s rules about naked guys, it violated its “don’t make fun of public figures” rules. Which is to say: Authentic apps about gay New York City will never be accepted.
