Description
April 26 Toronto "Gay Power, Gay Politics," a manipulative portrait of gays in San Francisco, was broadcast in prime time by CBS. Several days later, Stephen Lewis, the former head of the Ontario NDP, made negative comments about the gays portrayed in the program during one of his regular commentaries on CKEY radio. Lewis reported that "the sense of revulsion has not yet abated" and that he was sickened by the "horribly menacing" gay vote in San Francisco.
