Resources for final projects, part 1: GLAAD

The first link is to GLAAD's effort to identify stereotyping, along with either positive or demeaning images of gays and lesbians and others in entertainment media. One of the links is for information about the transgendered character on "Ugly Betty." The second link is to GLAAD's news round-up; it might be an important resource for those of you who want to analyze coverage of these issues in the news media.
