RI at center of CBN story on gay-marriage debate
The Ocean State has stumbled into the national spotlight once again, this time for its status as the only New England state that prohibits gay marriage.
Political Scene learned that Pat Robertson’s Christian Broadcast Network is planning a story on Rhode Island’s debate in the coming weeks. We spotted an unfamiliar film crew in the State House last week talking to outspoken liberal Sen. Charles J. Levesque, D-Portsmouth.
After poking around a bit, we discovered that CBN, which provides programming to stations in about 200 countries (in addition to a 24-hour “prayer line,” according to its Web site), also interviewed Roman Catholic Bishop Thomas J. Tobin; the Rev. Bernard Healey, a lobbyist for the Providence diocese, and Governor Carcieri, an opponent of gay marriage, among others. See RI at center of CBN story on gay-marriage debate
