Fall 2010
In the wake of the recent youth suicides caused by anti-gay bullying, GLAAD extends our deepest sympathies to the families and friends of the young men who took their lives, while urging the nation’s media to investigate the anti-gay climate that contributes to putting young people in harm’s way.
