Glaad Cites Another Delonas Cartoon
The Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD)
has issued a call for action regarding the above cartoon from Sean Delonas, which ran in the
New York Post on July 16. In the piece, the group describes what they find offensive and asks those reading to contact the publication and the cartoonist to voice their displeasure. At issue is a depiction of New Jersey's gay former governor Jim McGreevey as a prospective beauty queen, which the group terms as one in a number of "dehumanizing anti-gay stereotypes."
The group claims that twice in October 2006 Delonas made similar jokes at the expense of gay people, one equating gay marriage to a union of a man and a sheep, and one starring McGreevey and a sheep.
