Comparing Prop. 8 trial tweets

Margaret Talbot writing at The New Yorker News Desk: “It’s great to be able to compare blogs and tweets from, for example, the pro-gay marriage Courage Campaign and from the Alliance Defense Fund, which is providing some of the legal defense for Proposition 8. At the moment both are focussed on the cross-examination of the historian George Chauncey. The ADF reports that Chauncey ‘struggles to square’ past statements about the growing acceptance of homosexuality, and notes his ‘obvious discomfort.’ But even the Courage Campaign blogger, Paul Hogarth, is worried that Chauncey is agreeing too much with his cross-examiner.”
