02/08/2005 Archives: "Flintstones Are "Way Too Gay""

In a clever retaliation to recent accusations by conservatist groups that the characters of SpongeBob SquarePants display homosexual behavior, Newsweek's Andy Borowitz has written up a satirical article using the Flintstones characters. "Harland Devane, leader of the group Focus on the Flintstones, said at a press conference in Washington, D.C. today that his organization was issuing the demand because, 'Quite simply, everything about The Flintstones is way too gay. Their relationship is more flagrantly homosexual than anything in Oliver Stone's Alexander.'" Again, this article - not unlike The Onion reports - is just a spoof. Don't take it too seriously!
