HOLLYWOOD, November 7, 2003 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Famed talk show host Oprah Winfrey has once again promoted homosexuality, this time going so far as to tacitly endorse homosexual 'marriage' by nonchalantly putting forward the term without qualification on a recent show. Throughout the show, Oprah referred to guest Melissa Etheridge as "married" to her lesbian partner Tammy Lynn Michaels even though homosexual 'marriage' is illegal in the United States.
WorldNetDaily.com lists several examples of Oprah's use of the term "married" to describe the lesbian couples throughout the show. Oprah's website offers a preview clip where she can be heard using the word "married" to describe the couple. Country singer Dolly Parton, also a guest on the show, said she believed in same-sex 'marriage'.
Winfrey's support for the homosexual agenda and for abortion has long concerned pro-family advocates. During the Emmy awards in September 2002 she was awarded the inaugural Bob Hope Humanitarian Award. In her acceptance speech, Winfrey said, "We all are just regular people seeking the same thing: the guy on the street, the woman in the classroom, the Israeli, the Afghan, the Zuni, the Apache, the Irish, the Protestant, the Catholic, the gay, the straight, you, me -- we all just want to know that we matter. We want validation."
In 2000 Winfrey was the keynote speaker at a luncheon held by the Georgia Campaign for Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention, a group whose priority this year is to ensure that minors, without parental consent, maintain their access to contraceptives and abortion. Oprah's cameo appearance on the "coming out" episode of the TV show "Ellen" in 1997 demonstrates her long-standing promotion of homosexuality.
