Synod Coverage Fixated on Gays
 
NEW YORK, Oct. 20, 2014 /Standard Newswire/ -- Bill Donohue (photo) comments on media coverage of the Synod of Bishops:
 
 Media coverage of the second week of the Synod of Bishops was extensive. To the media, the number one issue was homosexuality.
 
Over the past week, Lexis-Nexis posted 278 stories taken from U.S. newspapers and wires on the subject of the synod. Here is the breakdown of the coverage:
 
·        80 percent mentioned gays or homosexuals
 
·        65 percent mentioned divorce or divorced
 
·        47 percent mentioned cohabitation
 
·        19 percent mentioned contraception
 
As the Centers for Disease Control recently disclosed, homosexuals are 1.6 percent of the population. But given the media obsession with this issue, a visitor from Mars might conclude it is more like 98 percent.
