Interesting Comments from Gold Derby's Tom O'Neil

1 Tom O'Neil on whether AS THE WORLD TURNS deserved a GLAAD Award for the Luke and Noah storyline: The show began its blatant discrimination near year's end, not letting them kiss during the notorious mistletoe scene. This issue began during the 2007 award eligibility period, remember. ATWT even forbade the actors to kiss at the GLAAD Awards, by the way! I will write up our report on the details of that later, after I speak today with GLAAD prez Neil G. Gold Derby will publish a full report later today, adding the input of more sources who I've been speaking to over the past 24 hours.
