Description
February 21 Canada John Hofsess's profile of John Damien, entitled "Damien's Exile," was published in Weekend Magazine, a Saturday supplement distributed in twenty-one Canadian newspapers with a readership of five million. The profile received positive feedback from the public, but some gay activists felt that Hofsess had downplayed Damien's homosexuality and the importance of his case to the gay movement.
