Newspaper Wedding Announcements

[Towntalk]

As part of show prep, I've noticed that a number of newspapers such as the New York Times have the same policy. Since I have no occassion to scan society pages I have not paid much attention one way or the other.

Oh.

For the record, I do NOT condone this lifestyle, I've just not felt the need to spend energy opposing it for quite some time.

A little snippit froms the article:

The Vindicator's long-time policy in regard to marriage announcements is that we will publish any legally recognized marriage, regardless of where it occurs.

We've published marriage vows that have taken place throughout the world. That world includes New York, which includes same-sex marriages as part of their legal landscape.

Precisely what is it with the new wedding announcements change that you disagree with? Since many of us do not subscribe to the paper and have no idea what you are referring to we would appreciate more detail.

I used to be a very close minded individual and probably would have done the same. The past 10 years or so I would have chosen to just ignore what I don't agree with.

After watching this video about two weeks ago I have to wonder exactly what it is that I (or anyone ) could possibly have a problem with.

A new change with the newspaper's wedding announcement policy has prompted some people to cancel their subscription.
