oh, right, so - it's not ok to have a channel that 'panders to the base interests of the hetero male', but you still want a channel that panders to homosexuals..
Get over it - gay channels don't want to get carried by ntl, and I don't think right now it would be economical for ntl to carry them anyway (and NO, they are not a charity - they're in it for the money).....
There's loads of gay issues on television anyway - in all the soaps, in plenty of films - I love that Justin interior designer fellow. Brilliant.
What exactly is it you'd get on a gay channel that you wouldn't from any other channel - do gays hold there cutlery differently or something? Do you have another language, or currency etc?? No. You don't. At the end of the day the only difference between being gay or straight is the gender of partner you choose. I'm bloody sure there'd be uproar if I started campaigning for 'straight' channnel......
