Text Any textual data included in the document (U-WIRE) NEW YORK--- Showtime’s new series Queer as Folk will be the first on television to explore the lives of an all-gay cast of characters, complete with frank depictions of their sexuality. The show, which begins airing on Sunday, December 3, received the red carpet treatment at a recent world premiere in Manhattan that was attended by the series’ cast and crew— along with a crowd of celebrities and invited guests. “It was spectacular,” says Tony Jonas, one of the show’s executive producers. “For we folk in television, when we make a new show, it goes without fanfare. We were treated like feature film people,” he says of the premiere, which benefited the Gay Men’s Health Crisis. “It was a delight to see the young case suddenly on the runway.” Queer as Folk is already generating attention for its controversial subject matter. Showtime will present the show as a season of 22 episodes that have been adapted from the original Bristish Queer as Folk. In the UK, Queer as Folk was broadcast as a limited series on Channel 4, where it stunned audiences with its graphic sex scenes and unflinchingly honest portrayal of gay culture, quickly becoming a critical success. The US version is set in Pittsburgh and is, like its predecessor, centered on the lives of five gay men and one lesbian couple. The structure is similar to HBO’s Sex and the City, with a central character— Michael Novotny (Hal Sparks)— who narrates each episode. Showtime is in the midst of a major promotional push for a show that will elicit any number of reactions from different audiences, few of them likely to be mild. “The most dangerous thing that can happen is that it will make people think,” Jonas said. “No one has ever seen a show like this before. This is a show that will stimulate on all levels.” With more than 20 years of industry experience behind him, Jonas anticipate that Queer as Folk will redefine the standards of television sexuality for the near future, eventually paving the way for other shows to follow. “We’ve pushed the envelope. Each one of these shows does heighten the bar a little bit. I hope in 10 years from now there will be a show that makes us look tame,” he says. “It’s a show that doesn’t belong on network television. We’re on cable. “If we were on a major network there would be a greater controversy.” Original Format The type of object, such as painting, sculpture, paper, photo, and additional data newspaper article Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

I f you know a lin Ie about the Bible you probably do. Evidently, given last week's :;nz:ly, many people who wrote in don't. For those people, I ask them o read Leviticus 18:22, Romans : 18-32, and I Corinthians 6:9-10. fhese are just a few examples about 'he truth ofTHECHRJSTlAN view )f homosexuality. Read it. Not what was printed last week about he BIble's view of homosexuality. Which gives me a perfect segue 110 this week's anicle. It is on truth If you listen to most liberals or the liberal news media, I think you're not g01l1g to get it. So where are you going to get the truth? Well, t"st, you can stan by reading m) column. From there watch Rush I mbaugh And from there, watch C ·Span The comb1l1allon of all these things (which includes the n:"s media) WIll gIve you what I \\ould consider the truth. Folks, n IE TRUTII lOUT IllERt (that's for you X-philcs). It may take some 100k1l1g, but you CJn' t rei) on onc source for the truth. So, in order to get you staned, I'm going to provide you with some truths. This issomewhatsimilarto Rush Limbaugh's 35 Undeniable Truths. This is also a list of future topics. I. There is a GOD. (If you'd like to debate, let me know) 2. Let me be perfectly clear: MORALITY IS OT DETERMINED BY INDIVIDUAL CHOICE! (Relativism will get you into a big heap of trouble.) 3. Homosexuality is a choice. Do the reasearch. I have. I've read Simon LeVay's work. I've read Dean Husk's work. There is no scie ntific evidence that homosexualIty is caused by genes. 4. It IS okay to be right. By that I mean conservative. It is okay to believe 111 conservative principles It Isokay to say there isa difference between right and wrong. It is okay to belIeve that people who do well 111 this world should not be pUl11shed. It IS good to stand up for \\hat you believe in. Don't be ashamed to stand up and say "This IS wrong!" It IS lime to fight for what we believe in . Folks, we members of the Republican party stand on the threshold of a ne\\ future. Our ideals will make this counl1) great. We will be a nation of independents. No longer will the government do what it wants. The government will do what we want. We will be a nation of people depending on no one but ourselves. We won't bea nation on welfare. We will be a nation that fares well in the twenty-first century. 5. If you steal, you're gUilty. If you murder, you're guilty. Period. End of story. Eric and Lyle Menendez are guilty of murder. They SHOT their parents. They RELOADED and shot their parents again. One of the first jurors said they felt sorry because they don't have their parents anymore. THEY SHOT THEIR PARENTS, THEY'RE GUILTY. 6. Dr. agy has every right to write what he dId. The anicle was poignant, well thought, and accepted by many on this campus. By calling his views closed-m1l1ded, writers are making hypocrites of themselves, because they themselves are being c1osedminded That is the first pan of the truths according to Todd. More next week. Keep your chill up; remember, we are winning. See you next week.

Text Any textual data included in the document I was deeply disturbed by something that I heard today. As a senior, I figured I knew all there was to know about the attitudes and feelings of the students on this campus. However, this is apparently not true at all. Rarely does something that one does or says make me angry. And nothing has upset me this much before, or given me the motivation to write an article. I believe that college campuses should be the educational centers of the world, not just for academics, but for ideologies as well. Various events this week have awakened me to the fact that Ursinus is a place for academic learning alone. Expecting harmony among assorted beliefs and practices seems to be too much to ask these days. Differing political views, religions, and lifestyles appear to be jammed into a 1,100 person school where beliefs are strong and open-mindedness is lacking. I believe in free speech. By this I mean that as long as one is not demaining another group in their written or spoken words, free speech is a blessing. However, this past week has been a nightmare for free speech and action. WVOU has been the deliverer of homphobic and gay-bashing messages. The conversations between two show's DJs and callers are too graphic to write. How is it that one can find profanity and explicit sexual, stereotypical comments entertaining? The language used on the radio is enough to call for some new rules on the air but how about the content of these messages? Should these few people be allowed to criticize and degrade those who do not follow the "norm"? Should the other listeners who are tolerant and understanding of diversity have to listen to this garbage? Well, not only was this issue present on the air this week but, it was also present on the wall. GALA recetly hung a poster in Wismer lobby A reading, "HOMOPHOBIA NEEDS TO BE CURED NOT HOMOSEXUALITY." To my knowledge, this statement is not offensive. It is true that some individuals who do not agree with homosexuality may be angered by this but, the statement does not criticize heterosexuals. To my knowledge, this sign was removed from the wall by a group of students that do not agree with, or tolerate, homosexuality. And this too sickens me. It is good to have steadfast beliefs. Yet, if one has such firm beliefs, why should they feel threated by another's? These heated issues and the emtions caused by them can be channeled toward education. From an envrironment where differing opinions are able to be epxressed and heard, diversity, respect, and ultimately unity can flourish. GALA has made a suggestion with which I agree; if you do not agree with what someone says or does, you can voice that opinion. This campus would be a better place if it were filled with a variety of educational messages. Pleace, post a sign next to an existing one, or voice your opinion over the air. However, please do it with open-mindedness and kindness. Let's get all of the opinions out on the floor without cruelty.
