Hundreds of Sacramento-area students rallied to support four students suspended for wearing anti-gay shirts. One participant said: "It's only going to get worse against Christians. We're going to get persecuted more and more. But those who stand to the end: God is going to save them." Um, right...

Sony's banking on Spider Man 3. Literally. Some insiders claim the flick cost $300 million to produce. No doubt, however, it'll make it back. And then some.

The International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission will honor Nepal's Blue Diamond Society for all their hard activist work. Unfortunately, they will not be honored with actual blue diamonds.

Maryland's House has passed a bill requiring health insurance companies to extend benefits to same-sex partners and children. The bill now needs to be signed by the governor to become a law. (We totally just had a School House Rock flashback.)

kathy griffin

Our favorite Real Worlder Dan Renzi heard our cries and is doing something about the horror that is E! firing Kathy Griffin. You can help. Dan needs a few good homos.

Over at his blog Dan has made it easy for you to help bring back our favorite red head to her rightful place: the red carpet. He’s even drafted a letter for you.

Dear E! Entertainment,

Your decision to fire Kathy Griffin from the red carpet was an act of utter lunacy. Please reconsider your horrible decision, or I will personally endorse turning your network in to a home shopping channel.

Sincerely,

A Concerned Citizen

Head on over and send your letter. And send this to all your friends. A travesty like this should not happen silently.

Kathy Griffin


The E! television network has made the sinful decision to fire Kathy Griffin from her role as red-carpet lookeyloo at The Golden Globes. And what’s worse, they didn’t even have the decency to tell her to her lineless face. Her lawyer had to hear about it when he called E! Prez Ted Harbert to ask what’s going on with the show.


When Griffin’s people called Harbert, “Apparently Ted told my reps that the E! red carpet is a puzzle and I am a piece of the puzzle, which is a wonderful puzzle piece, but I don’t fit this particular puzzle and that when I see the puzzle, I will get it. I am a piece that doesn’t understand only because they can’t tell me who will take over.
“They kept saying, ‘When you see the new puzzle, you will know it is not a personal insult.’ I was like, are you kidding? I got canned, bottom line. I can’t even be like Star Jones and be like, ‘Oh, I have a book tour coming up!’

Look, E! you can’t survive without the gay audience and the gay audience can’t survive without Kathy Griffin and Renee Zellwegger going toe-to-toe. Bring back Kathy and pronto! Someone who’s not lazy like us should start a petition.
