ITV defends Coronation Street's gay kiss after receiving outrage backlash

"We approach the portrayal of homosexual relationships in the same way as heterosexual relationships​." - YESfrom an immoral position.

ITV has defended Coronation Street after some viewers reacted with disgust to an immoral homosexual romantic scene. During Monday's episodes, Billy (Daniel Brocklebank) and Todd (Bruno Langley) kissed on a hotel bed – but some viewers shared their outrage on Twitter. 


@itvcorrie Homosexual scenes in #Corrie tonight were sickening. Most now tolerate this practice but we don't need it rammed down our throats

ITV said that the soap did nothing wrong in airing those scenes, explaining that it does not discriminate against same-sex relationships. But doing nothing "wrong" is being defined by people who knows no difference between "right" and "wrong." Their wrong and right are morally corrupt.

THEY EVALUATE ACCORDING TO THEIR OWN WARPED VALUES
"We approach the portrayal of homosexual relationships in the same way as heterosexual relationships, and we carefully consider all scenes in our soaps" the broadcaster said.

"We do not believe that the content of [Monday's] episode was inappropriately scheduled or exceed generally accepted standards for content broadcast at this time."It's not the first time viewers have hit out against Coronation Street. Many people complained to Ofcom over scenes which aired in July, again involving Billy and Todd. But Ofcom dismissed the complaints, stating that the soap didn't break any rules. Many disagree with these so called rules and are not prepared to view immoral homosexual kissing, same sex marriage ceremonies or totally immoral sex scenes.  The producers are simply baiting the audience, causing controversy to get attention to a filing TV series.
"Our rules do not discriminate between scenes involving opposite sex and same-sex couples," it said at the time. "Also, the scenes were not in any way sexually explicit. For these reasons, they were not scheduled inappropriately and did not exceed generally accepted standards."
