The gay community is VERY powerful, bubbles, and very vocal. They've had a setback in the area of gay marriage; recently in California they lost the right to marry (but domestic partnerships are still legal in CA), but otherwise they are very well-organized and extremely well-funded. Plus the Hollywood community is overwhelmingly -- overwhelmingly -- gay, and, maybe more importantly, has been very hard-hit by AIDS and HIV.

This little bit of news should have a very interesting impact on them.
