• NewsBusters, the watch dog group dedicated to "exposing and combating liberal media bias", are taking aim at GLAAD the group released a statement in which president Neil Giuliano "urges" the media to commemorate Falwell as a homo-hating monster:

As they look back on the life of the Rev. Falwell, media have an opportunity and a responsibility to reflect on the outdated, hurtful attitudes and beliefs he embodied...

It's an important opportunity to take stock of how far our nation has come in moving toward a more respectful and inclusive society, and how far we still have to go.

On Anderson Cooper 360, CNN correspondent Randi Kaye, who raised eyebrows in December for a story worrying about Saddam suffering when he hanged, shared no comparable horror at the death of Falwell. Her transcript read like a commercial for GLAAD... Anchor Anderson Cooper titled his segments "Faith and Fury," and fury was certainly in heavy rotation on CNN.

Sexual panic's alive and well, especially in the wild world of advertising. An Advertising Standards Authority report cites a number of contentious same-sex ads. For example, a Gay Police Association advert garnered 553 official complaints.

Meanwhile, while a lesbianic French Connection ad and a gay-tinged Dolce & Gabbana promotion also sparked some angry tirades. Whatever, those people are probably just unfashionable, undeniably reactionary, prudes...

We had so much fun with yesterday's post on Dolce & Gabbana's controversial "gang rape" advert, that we just had to find some more images from the current campaign. As you can see, the Italian designing duo have tapped some of the world's most attractive men, including Matt Loewen, Evandro Soldati (on Lowen's shoulders) and Brazilian model, Miro Moreira. Even if you've seen them before, they're definitely worth a second look...

Italian design duo Dolce & Gabbana have pulled this ad from Italian and Spanish publications after people complained that it glorifies gang rape. Stefano Gabbana, meanwhile, says the ad "recall an erotic dream, a sexual game."

What's your take, reader? Rape or fantasy? As if we don't already know what you're going to say...
