...will see the debut of Pink TV, another gay-themed cable and satellite channel. GAY-TV began in May 2002 as an experiment in niche marketing, but quickly pulled in major advertisers like Dolce & Gabbana, Eagle Pictures and Renault (with an ad for the Clio that shows a male cop pulling over a car, looking at the male driver and whipping out his pad - to write not a ticket, but his phone number).

Flipping past treasure after treasure, Tang suddenly stopped. Lot 32, credited as belonging to "various owners," was very...
...idea that the “liberal media” is antagonizing Rush Limbaugh is of course the classic, cop-out response. You’d think that the media has run rampant with ad hominem attacks against Rush—and yes, one Al Franken and miscellaneous others prove exceptions as they relish his hypocrisy—but the character assassination territory is generally left to Limbaugh...
