Truth Wins Out - Momentum Drives Campaign To Keep Dobson From Radio Hall of Fame

Momentum Drives Campaign To Keep Dobson From Radio Hall of Fame

Posted July 11th, 2008

In just two days, hundreds of Americans have signed onto Truth Wins Out’s letter to keep Focus on the Family leader James Dobson out of the Radio Hall of Fame. The Chicago Sun Times, Sirius Out Q and the Howard Stern Show has covered the story, as well as leading GLBT blogs and news sources:

To fight back, TWO strongly urges fair-minded people to take three actions.

1) Sign TWO’s formal request to have James Dobson removed from consideration.

2) Contact Museum of Broadcast Communications CEO Bruce DuMont directly, brucedumont@museum.tv, to express your displeasure.

3) As an option, vote for nominees other than James Dobson or Laura Schlessinger (the general public may vote, and the other nominees are Bob Costas and Howard Stern).

It is urgent to act now, as voting comes to a close on July 15

A source with Senator Obama’s campaign has now confirmed to Pam’s House Blend that under no circumstances will funds from the program will be granted to FBOs for proselytizing or reparative therapy. Under the Obama plan, MCC congregations, LGBT-welcoming Methodist and Unitarian congregations, and other affirming churches will have access to funds to do much-needed work in communities large and small of great importance – HIV/AIDS education, for instance, relief efforts, etc.
