Mike Wallace - "The Homosexuals" (1967, Recap Version)

Wow!

That really surprised me. The heterosexual viewpoint of that time was just as I remember it, but I was shocked at how much I disagreed with the two homosexual views expressed, especially Gore Vidal's.

Mike Wallace has since come to regret his participation in this broadcast, blaming the anti-gay therapists for spreading misinformation about gay people. Wallace repented in an interview many years later:

“Well, I said it. That is — God help us — what our understanding of the homosexual lifestyle was a mere twenty-five years ago because nobody was out of the closet and because that’s what we heard from doctors–that’s what Socarides told us, it was a matter of shame.”

Not as a rebuttal, but also posted on the subject today and a well argued position (for those who give the Bible weight on the subject - I do not).

Aye, I caught the reference. I had an English teacher in 7th grade who made us read a lot of Bradbury. I think that is a large part of the reason why I was so depressed in my early teens. O_o
