GLAAD Award Nominees Announced

The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) announced today the nominees for its 22nd Annual GLAAD Media Awards. No real surprises -- some "Glee," some "Modern Family" -- although I'm sure my not being nominated for outstanding blog is some sort of clerical error that will be taken care of before the big ceremony in March. Below are a few key categories. For the complete list of nominees, click HERE.
