Jane Spahr is acquitted of violating Presbyterian Church (USA) policy for marrying two lesbian couples; Wisconsin becomes the 7th U.S. state to put on this year's ballot a constitutional ban on legal recognition of queer couples, while Utah's lone openly-gay lawmaker SCOTT McCOY eloquently espouses the *real* "Gay Agenda" on the floor of the state Senate [includes his succinct statement] (written this week by LUCIA CHAPPELLE and GREG GORDON, with thanks to JERRY TROWBRIDGE, REX WOCKNER, and GRAHAM UNDERHILL, and reported by SHERI LUNN and CHARLS HALL) [10:55] + Del Shores billboard [:15] . . . 11:10 SEGMENT #2 - Although another notable socially significant film "Crash"ed what was expected to be a "BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN" party for the Motion Picture Academy's Best Film of 2005, the heart-wrenching gay love story did add 3 major OSCARS to its herd of trophies at the 78th annual Hollywood ceremonies on March 5th. And the night before that show watched 'round the world, "Brokeback Mountain" did win the Best Feature prize at the INDEPENDENT SPIRIT AWARDS, as did Best Director Ang Lee. And while she didn't win the top prize at the Oscars, FELICITY HUFFMAN's star-turn won her the Indy Spirit Award for Best Female Lead (with a clip from her acceptance speech). "Brokeback Mountain" collected Oscars the next night for Best Original Score composer GUSTAVO SANTAOLALLA (with a clip from his thank you speech), Best Adapted Screenplay for Larry McMurtry and DIANA OSANA (a clip from her comments), and Best Director for ANG LEE (excerpts from his thank you remarks). In accepting his Best Supporting Actor Oscar for another of the several politically-charged multiple-nominee films, "Syriana," GEORGE CLOONEY couldn't resist commenting on conservative critics who claim that Hollywood is out of touch with mainstream culture (with excerpts from his comments, all reported by GREG GORDON] . . 4:45 SEGMENT #3 - The son of a Southern Baptist preacher, playwright DEL SHORES was married for nine years and had two daughters before he finally came out as a gay man. That difficult journey informs his work, which is both honest and hilarious. His plays "Daddy's Dyin'... Who's Got The Will?" and "Sordid Lives" were made into successful movies, and the film version of "SOUTHERN BAPTST SISSIES" starts shooting in just a few months. But even if you've never seen any of his plays or films, you've still probably encountered his work as a writer on such TV shows as "Queer As Folk," "Dharma & Greg," "Ned and Stacey," and even "Touched By An Angel". This Way Out's STEVE PRIDE sat down with the prolific Shores for a discussion about life, love, Southern Baptists, and sissies (with premier outro music from "Stained Glass Window" by LEVI KREIS, set to be part of the "Southern Baptist Sissies" soundtrack) [8:40]. . . . . . . . . 10:25 [www.DelShores.net; www.PrideOnScreen.com] Closing Credits/continuity . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1:30 TOTAL PROGRAM TIME . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 29:00 ===================================== * =============================== STATION PROMO COPY: ANNCR: NEXT TIME ON "THIS WAY OUT", EXPOSING THE "SORDID LIVES" OF "SOUTHERN BAPTIST SISSY" DEL SHORES...
