Description

April 18 Toronto Members of FLAG distributed leaflets to Toronto Sun employees that accused the paper of indulging in yellow journalism in its treatment of gays, feminists, and other minorities. On April 23, 1978, Claire Hoy printed the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of the organizers of FLAG in his Sunday Sun column. As a result, two members of the group received numerous harassing and threatening telephone calls.
