Well, that was fast.
Right Wing Watch is reporting on a newly announced and now cancelled series for HGTV featuring two anti-gay extremists, the Benham brothers.
Last month, the HGTV network announced that it will launch a new reality TV show, “Flip it Forward,” starring David and Jason Benham. The twin brothers will “leverage their good-natured sibling rivalry to help families find a fixer-upper and transform it into the dream home they never thought they could afford.”
What HGTV did not mention was the brothers history of anti-gay/anti-choice activism.
From Right Wing Watch:
David Benham, led a prayer rally — Charlotte 7:14 — outside of the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, North Carolina in 2012, which he told conservative radio host Janet Mefferd was needed to stop “homosexuality and its agenda that is attacking the nation” and “demonic ideologies tak[ing] our universities and our public school systems”
He told Mefferd that his brother Jason joined him in organizing the DNC prayer protest.
You can hear a bit of David Benham's "philosophy" below. Hard to imagine this kind of character on HGTV:
