Christian News Site Automatically Changes World Record Holder's Last Name From Gay To "Homosexual"

As evidenced by some of the stories in the Sports World of late there are some overly sensitive folks out there. One of those groups of people happen to be the Christian news network One News Now who apparently have a filter that changes the word "Gay" to "Homosexual". Obviously it does it for people who have the name Gay, like new 100-meter World Record holder Tyson Gay, and thus gives us the best headline ever....


The craziest part of the whole thing is that when you click on the story it links to the AP version with the correct version of the runner's name. Too funny and it might be time to update your homosexual editing software, One News Now.

Unbelievable!

My sentiment exactly.

IDK where the negative point value came in, maybe it stem from my ''NOT the ways of a Christian comment.'' That it seem a bit immature from my part. Because i'm definitely not a discriminatory person. My comments were not deemed to be that. I guess i should have said they were wrong for printing a false hood vs. Tyson Gay.

its the guys name!

i know that.

That's pretty irresponsible for them to post that. Not only are they defaming that man has a human being, but EVERYONE with the same last name. That my friend is NOT the ways of a Christian.

You hit it right on the heat, arenas. Too many of these Chrisitian sites take the religion*far* outside it's own context.

I'm just shaking my head.
