GLAAD Award winners

The Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation annually hands out awards for positive G&L representation in the media.

Grey’s T.R. Knight opened the ceremony, saying “I am angry at the inequality we face every day. I hope to turn my anger into action. One of my actions is to be here to celebrate GLAAD’s work – it’s work to teach and promote inclusion.”
