During the Thursday evening broadcast, KDKA news stepped over the line covering a local fire. A Trafford fire left 10 people homeless; everyone made it out alive and unharmed. But to get the sensational angle, David Highfield stuck a camera in the face of one victim who was clearly distraught over the deaths of her […]
Last night, we went to see Crash at The Manor in Squirrel Hill. This is one of your lesbian correspondents stating that Crash deserved the Oscar for Best Picture over Brokeback Mountain. I loved Brokeback and believe it to be one of the best movies in my 35 years of movie watching. But Crash resonates […]
I’m not a fan of Catherine Specter’s alleged advice column in the Post-Gazette. In fact, I’m secretly convinced she was planted by the Mellon-Scaife contingent to subtly shift PG readers back to “when men were men and girls were girls.” Her advice has mostly been ridiculous and demeaning. Today, however, she took herself to a […]
In the final strip from the recent gay cowboy thread, Aaron McGruder's Granddad comes to the startling revelation that he can appreciate gay-themed movies and music without turning gay himself! GASP! Click on strip to read it.
Unproclaimed lesbian idol Jodie Foster will be the commencement speaker for the University of Pennsylvania's Class of 2006. The university will bestow an Honorary Doctor of Arts degree upon Ms. Foster. My commencement speaker was the CEO of some chemical firm that had financial investments in apartheid South Africa. 🙁 Congratulations to the Penn lesbians! […]
The Post-Gazette's Scott Mervis faces down Brokeback Mountain's impending dominance of the Oscars … With a nod to “Brokeback Mountain,” the PG brings you its first-ever gay-cowboy 12-question movie quiz. Because, to no one's surprise, the genre doesn't run deep, our focus here is not on cowboy movies with gay people, but rather, with Oscar-related […]
This is especially funny. One of the good things about Aaron McGruder's satire is not having to add much in the way of commentary. Click on the cartoon to read the strip.
For proof the PG's inevitable downward spiral, one need look no further than “Just Ask Cat,” a misguided attempt to offer advice to Pittsburgh's lost and lovelorn. Would-be columnist Catherine Specter dishes out bad advice more often than Joe Grata disses Penndot. Ms. Specter is caught up in a retro-delusion that with the right […]
Had dinner with my long-time friend Amy (27 years or so) and her adorable two-year old daughter last weekend. She informed me that her 80ish grandmother had heard my “Lesbian Correspondent” segments on The Temporary John McIntire Show and was very pleased. Apparently, Grammy is a big fan of both McIntire and Lynn Cullen. Obviously […]
This weekend, Transamerica opens in Pittsburgh. This film, which garnered a Best Actress Golden Globe for Felicity Huffman, focuses on the relationship between a transgender woman (Huffman) and the teenage son she didn't know she fathered. It is playing in one (1) theater — the Cinemagic on Forward Avenue in Squirrel Hill. (Side note: Brokeback Mountain is now […]
