A Media for Diversity: LGBT in the news - a guide for better reporting

An initiative of Lithuanian Gay League, this publication is based on a desire to change the way LGBT is often presented in the media. A pilot initiative with the potential to grow, it constitutes a toolkit for LGBT activists and media professionals alike, on how to work with each other in the best possible way. The fundamental problem of utter ignorance, or even blatant homophobia, is still widespread in the Lithuanian press. This initiative is but a step towards tackling this trend. It is first and foremost aimed at activists and media professionals willing to work with the issues, and improve their skills doing so. It aims to bolster a small, but certainly existing, counter-trend to that of ignorance and homophobia.
