Morgan Chesky of KVUE-TV and KVUE.com in Austin, TX has two things in his article and accompanying video that I find very disturbing.

First, he refers to Reverend Jayme Mathias, the winner of the local AISD's school board, as having a "sexual preference" -- NOT a sexual orientation, insinuating that he has a choice in the matter.

Second, he makes an obvious attempt at a joke (that isn't funny) by saying that Reverand Mathias "came out on top," a not so subtle reference at his sexuality.

You can make a report to GLAAD here, and you can send a twitter or email message to the reporter at @MorganC_KVUE or mchesky@kvue.com

A poll can be found after the break.
