The on-screen "father of the gay" reflects a writer's "Every Day";
A "Glee"-ful Golden Globe winner tells bullies to "stick it";
A knight and gay "action hero" is celebrated in a "Rainbow Minute";
The U.S. Supreme Court refuses to hear D.C. marriage equality foes,
a Saskatchewan court cans marriage commissioner bias, anti-LGBT
violence is rampant in Honduras and Brazil, and more global LGBT news

- In "NewsWrap": The U.S. Supreme Court refuses to hear a challenge to the marriage equality law in Washington, D.C., while another U.S. federal judge questions the constitutionality of the so-called "Defense of Marriage Act", or DOMA... Saskatchewan's Court of Appeals rules that the Canadian province's marriage commissioners must comply with the nationwide marriage equality law and cannot refuse to marry same-gender couples for religious reasons, while the fundamentalist Christian owners of a British bed and breakfast are fined for refusing to allow a civilly-partnered gay couple to share a double room... human rights groups sound the alarm over escalating hate murders of LGBT people in Honduras and Brazil... America's first LGBT History Museum, newly-opened in San Francisco's famed Castro district, is condemned by a well-known right wing homophobe as nothing more than a "propaganda porch"... and more LGBT news from around the world (written by GREG GORDON and reported this week by JOHN TORRES and ROBERT LEBLANC).

- Gay-themed and -inclusive movies and television shows won some major bling at the Hollywood Foreign Press Association's glitzy annual GOLDEN GLOBE AWARDS on January 16th. They included CHRIS COLFER, who gave the "Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in a Series, Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for Television" as bullied but defiantly "out" and proud gay teenager "Kurt Hummel" on "Glee" (with Colfer"s uplifting acceptance speech).

- "SIR IAN McKELLEN, ENGLAND'S REVERED ACTOR AND GAY ACTIVIST" is profiled in this "RAINBOW MINUTE" (produced by JUDD PROCTOR & BRIAN BURNS at WRIR-FM in Richmond, Va. and read by ROBIN AUSTIN).

- To an outsider, it looks like Ned has a perfect life: lovely wife Jeannie, two healthy sons, a high-paying job as a television writer, and a beautiful home. But cracks are starting to show around the edges. His wife's cranky invalid father moves in with them, his boss hates Ned's tame writing style, and his already-"out" 15-year-old son Jonah is ready for a lot more sexual independence than Ned is ready for. Film festival fave "EVERY DAY", based on the real life of its writer/director RICHARD LEVINE ("Nip/Tuck"), just opened in Los Angeles and New York. With copious clips featuring "dad" LIEV SCHREIBER and "son" EZRA MILLER, "This Way Out's" STEVE PRIDE talks to Levine about his film and his own gay son (with additional comments by co-star HELEN HUNT).
