Proposition 8
  • Video Advocacy Example: Commercial or Advocacy Video for Marriage Equality? This video is a good example of the blur between corporate advertising and video advocacy. The content and presentation resembles an advocacy video for marriage equality, yet the intention of the video was to sell a product (a dating site created by fashion company Björn Borg). The message of advertisement is lost to most viewers, and fails as an advertisement. WITNESS October 14, 2011
  • Landmark Decision – Prop 8 Ruling Thursday August 5th, 2010, was a victory day for the LGBT community. California's Prop 8 ruling was deemed unconstitutional in a landmark decision by Justice Vaughn R. Walker of the California Federal Court. The Rachel Maddow Show sums it up very well on MSNBC.
