========================================
The week of 05/01/06 on
T H I S W A Y O U T
the international gay & lesbian radio magazine
(hosted this week by Greg Gordon and produced with Lucia Chappelle)
Craig Chester's new romantic comedy "Adam and Steve" challenges stereotypes;
Howard Stern is the "King" to OutQ's "Queen" -- Sirius-ly!
Euro activists battle prejudice against Pride, queer Holocaust victims are
memorialized in Israel, Hong Kong won't host U.K. partnerships, "King &
King" fairy tale frightens "faithful" Massachusetts parents, U.S. pupils'
plight is pondered as silent supporters protest, and more global GLBT news
* In "NewsWrap": The International Lesbian and Gay Association World
Conference in Geneva includes a public protest of the threatened ban on Moscow's
first-ever Pride march, while Latvian activists plan a second Pride event in Riga
despite last year's ugly opposition, but in Canada, Ottawa Pride organizers may
be bankrupt... the LGBT community is publicly represented for the first time
in Israel's annual Holocaust Remembrance Day... the Hong Kong government
refuses to allow lesbigay U.K. nationals living there to register their civil
partnerships... a new survey shows a dramatic increase in the number of U.S. queer
couples who plan to add children to their families... "faith-based" parents
sue the Lexington, Massachusetts school system for allowing a teacher to read
the gay-supportive fairy tale "King & King" to their children's class... new
research sponsored by GLSEN (the Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network) shows
that a vast majority of U.S. LGBT students continue to be verbally and
physically harassed on campus, as the GLSEN-sponsored 10th annual "National Day of
Silence" held on thousands of school campuses across the U.S. spotlights the
difficult challenges facing LGBT students (written by GREG GORDON and reported
this week by KATHY SANCHEZ and CHRISTOPHER GAAL).
* SIRIUS SATELLITE RADIO boasts a unique channel in its pantheon of talk and
music programming: OUT-Q. The 24/7 LGBT station beams queer talk and music to
Sirius receivers virtually anywhere in North America -- at home or office, or
on the road. Because it's arriving via satellite, Sirius channels come in
crystal clear even if you drive coast to coast. QutQ founder and station
manager JOHN McMULLEN chats with This Way Out's GREG GORDON about his relationship
with Sirius and the recently-arrived "King of All Media" Howard Stern, and
outlines OutQ's program line-up.
* The road to romance is no stroll through the Garden of Eden for "ADAM &
STEVE", the heroes of a new over the top romantic comedy. Veteran indie actor
and queer idol CRAIG CHESTER makes the leap to the director’s chair for the new
film about two gay men whose relationship blooms in the face of overwhelming
odds. Chester brings preview clips, and talks about his film, and being openly
gay in Hollywood, with This Way Out's STEVE PRIDE [www.Ad
