Things aren’t looking good for anti-gay crusaders Focus on The Family:
Focus on the Family is laying off 30 employees and reassigning 15 others, due in part to a drop in projected revenue and to growth in technology.

Schneeberger says the group came in about $8 million short of its $150 million budget. Head honcho James Dobson says donations have fallen in recent months.
