Far Left Malcontents, Good or Bad ?

In response to "The Malcontents: Volume 1",

http://current.com/1m13ukc

I suggest the following:

History evidenced that like slavery and women's rights, the establishment will never yield power, control, wealth, position, and will never grant others their due rights unless those who are entitled to them stand up defiantly and demand them. Even Mahatma Gandhi was compelled to go "far left" in order to achieve some degree of liberty from Britain for the Indians. It was not women's or the Indian's responsibility or obligation to concern themselves with the inconveniences that their demands for their equal rights created for some others. If they only acted from a perspective of concern for the inconvenience of others, they could never initiate the first action to achieve what belongs to them. That Clinton mistook what the fallout from promoting the gay agenda, to the degree that he initially did, would cause him, was his responsibility singularly. From the perspective of gays, they are one of the last institutionally oppressed groups in this country who are being systematically deprived of their constitutional rights. While it surprises me that they have not been more demanding and proactive than they are; because they certainly could have become more belligerent or violent, they will be given nothing within this society unless they demand it, and leave it to others to assuage their own issues with the facts.

In fact, I consider myself to be on the far left, and to be fiscally and constitutionally conservative, while supporting very progressive solutions to very aggressively progressive problems. From my perspective of being conservative, the left's keynote positions and policies are for the welfare of this country's people, constitution, responsible and accountable government, environment, economy, security, and individual freedoms and liberties. I know of no one of my ideology who would sacrifice their beliefs for a few dollars. In fact, most of those who share my beliefs sacrifice far better paying occupations so that they can work in fields which they believe will protect and promote the welfare of all that they believe in, other than money. We do not eschew or reject wealth, and in fact embrace it, but not unjustly at another's expense. However, I proudly concede that I am a "MALCONTENT"! I adamantly object to the status quo while believing that business has corrupted our government to the degree that the ballot box is temporarily ineffective, and I refuse to accept or resign myself to it without making every effort to rectify it. I believe it is my obligation to Jefferson, Franklin, Washington and every patriot who has laid down their life to preserve the "OPPORTUNITY" to revive, reclaim, and reaffirm the freedoms and liberties which their efforts afforded us, to make every effort to fight the compromise on these values which userers, exploiters, thieves, liars, and the corporate right types will always make.In response to "The Malcontents: Volume 1", http://current.com/1m13ukc... more

Gay TV Network New York Move

In this exclusive audio interview Emmy Winner Charlotte Robinson host of OUTTAKE VOICES™ talks with Josh Rosenzweig, Senior Vice President of Original Programming and Development at Here Media about the new shows on here! TV and the timely move to increase production in New York as the state passes marriage equality. The newest addition to their schedule is “Threesome” which premiered on here! TV this month. This show consists of 24 half-hour episodes hosted by Stoya and features an expert panel of guests including Cherie Lily and Will Wikle with special guest Dr. Frank Spinelli. “Threesome” is here! TV’s roundtable discussion addressing sex, dating, and relationships. The show includes celebrity panelists who answer viewers’ questions. Each episode features a new panel of experts lending their advice to the here! TV audience.

When asked what new TV trends were on his radar, Rosenzweig stated, “In the end of 2010 and when Here Media decided they were going to move the majority of production from Los Angeles to New York our CEO Paul Colichman came to me and said ‘Hey look, we need to breathe life into our TV network again. We’ve had a low boil for a year and a half while we utilized resources on the magazines and websites. Now we need to put some energy into the television network with some really exciting original programming!’ And I said to Paul, for me, what I think we need to do is not make it edgier but a little younger, a little hipper, more fun, just add some comedy stuff to it, just make it a little more modern, exciting programming that utilizes people from various walks of life. Whether it’s entertainment, media or news just add a younger hipper edge to it.”

Some of the new here! TV original series include: “Behind the Bar”, an insider’s glimpse at the best mixologists working today, “This Gay House”, a tour of the stunning homes of the hottest LGBT tastemakers, “Dinah Girls”, a sizzling behind-the-scenes tour of Club Skirts The Dinah, the music series “Boombox” with DJ Cazwell, “Face to Face” and “Just Josh”, a new talk show hosted by Josh Rosenzweig. Note: This interview was recorded prior to New York passing marriage equality.

Kathleen Turner in The Perfect Family

In this exclusive audio interview Emmy Winner Charlotte Robinson host of OUTTAKE VOICES™ talks with the fabulous Kathleen Turner about her starring role in THE PERFECT FAMILY directed by Anne Renton, the new comedy/drama that opened the Provincetown International Film Festival. In this family themed film Turner plays a devout Catholic and New Jersey suburban mom who is confronted by her religious beliefs. She learns she’s a candidate for “Catholic Woman of the Year.” This is where it gets interesting. The church must interview her family in order to make their decision. Her daughter played by Emily Deschanel (from the hit Fox TV Series Bones) plays her lesbian daughter who’s about to marry her partner but Mom is in denial that the relationship even exists. Her son played by Jason Ritter wants to get a divorce and Michael McGrady portrays her recovering alcoholic husband who has just had about enough of all the deceptions. The stellar cast also includes a rare performance by Richard Chamberlain as Monsignor Murphy. This film deals with positive LGBT family issues and whether you’re Catholic or not you must see this movie.

As a New Yorker Turner supports gay marriage and when asked about how this LGBT themed movie came about Kathleen stated, “Well I think it’s very much part of the writer’s and everyone’s lives. I mean the director has a wonderful partner and the producers are two women who are married. So it is something they were all open to and receptive towards. For me I think that a family is a family and love is love and I really don’t need to draw distinctions based on gay or lesbian issues. My question is: Is it a committed solid relationship, not are they both lesbian, gay or straight. Is it a marriage? That’s what I find compelling.”

THE PERFECT FAMILY, written by Paula Goldberg and Claire V. Riley and produced by Certainty Films, is playing the festival circuit and will be at Outfest LA in July. It will be released later this year.
