What's Up With The Oregonian?
The issue that I read of today's The Oregonian didn't carry a single word of coverage about last night's Rally to Defend Equality.

Last night the paper's Web site posted a link to Gay Right Watch, and their blog post about the event, but that only stayed up briefly.

1500+ people coming out and standing in the rain and cold to demonstrate their commitment to a cause isn't news?


disgusting, don’t you think?


but i smile all the same.
upon exiting the library steps behind my girlfriend late this afternoon,
i spied a man with a sticker from yesterday's rally on his jacket.
i stepped back in the doorway.
"thank you for supporting equal rights," i said softly.
he smiled, meeting my eyes.
"no problem."
