•  PBS NewsHour promoted another liberal pet cause as a segment was devoted to the efforts of gay activists who are demanding to have their blood accepted for blood transfusions.
• Co-host Geoff Bennett referred to complaints of “discriminatory policies” as he teased at the top of the show: “The FDA proposes easing restrictions on blood donations from gay and bisexual men — reversing what advocates have long called discriminatory policies.”
• Later on, co-host Amna Nawaz set up the segment by recalling that the FDA’s new policies would allow donors who have gone at least three months without anal sex would be allowed to donate blood instead of banning all gay men.
