It's like affirmative action for college acceptances. Surely, if you really wanted to statistically represent the United States you'd have 77.1% of the people in news articles white, 12.3% of them black, etc... so why artificially superimpose minorities into news stories just to tell people "Hey, there are other people in America who are gay and aren't white!"?

Can the liberals and conservatives give me there opinion on this?
