Gay and lesbian journalists have a significant role to play in influencing how those images are formed. In the U.S., the NATIONAL LESBIAN AND GAY JOURNALISTS ASSOCIATION (NLGJA) has been representing the professional as well as the personal interests of that constituency for ten years. Some of its members reviewed major successes (and continuing struggles) at the annual NLGJA Conference in mid-September in Atlanta, Georgia. This Way Out's JON BEAUPRE was there, and has a wrap-up of the event (with comments by NLGJA Vice President for Broadcast ROSE ARCE; Diversity Initiative leader KATTIA HETTER; President KAREN LOUISE BOOTHE; former Board member and Pulitzer Prize winner JONATHAN CAPEHART; founder and former President ROY AARONS; and longtime Board member ALLEN FLIPPEN) [5:50] >................... 5:55 SEGMENT #3 - "TWO" I.D. by openly-gay comedy writer BRUCE VILANCH [:20] + When it came to on-scene coverage of the NLGJA conference, the pros took a back seat to a contingent of lesbian and gay student journalists who came from some of the finest schools in the country to participate in an intensive internship program.
