I had my interview with Wayne Besen yesterday which will be used in one or more documentaries being done for Truth Wins Out (http://www.truthwinsout.org/) and GLAAD (http://www.glaad.org/) that will be used to expose the fraud of the ex-gay cure programs. The interview focused on the events leading up to the story about national ex-gay Michael Johnston that showed he was certainly not cured and had been exposing unknowing victims to HIV.
We also talked about the unbelievable fact that the American Family Association ("AFA") is trying to rehabilitate Johnston and is marketing his books and videos which purported that he was "cured of homosexuality by accepting Jesus." I have always found AFA to be among the most dishonest of the anti-gay Christianist organizations, but HOW they can market Michael Johnston's materials when they know his story was an outright lie is mind boggling. AFA is taking hypocrisy to a whole new level and showing once again that all they truly care about is money and using the "cure myth" for political purposes. Rev. Wildmon deserves a "Worse Person in the World" award from Keith Olbermann for this callous deception.
