2 recent videos reveal The Young Turks investor Buddy Roemer's history of homophobia.
In the first vid, The Young Turks are called on to identify if their investor Buddy Roemer still prefers anti-LGBT equality policies such as "states rights" regarding marriage equality and also if he still holds the view, "marriage is between a man and a woman." And if he does, they should explain doing business with him would be any different than doing business with Phil Robertson of Duck Dynasty, Brendan Eichdrandon formerly of Mozilla, or former L.A. Clippers owner Donald Sterling. If Roemer still holds anti-gay views then shouldn't The Young Turks be transparent about his LLC ensuring fans that none of his investment return would wind up going towards anti-LGBT businesses or causes?
In the second vid, a Young Turks Meetups Co-Coordinator is asked about the about the $4 million investment by homophobe Buddy Roemer. He is also asked about the ethics of The Young Turks's crowdfunding campaign to build a studio. The vid was recorded at a Wolf PAC / Young Turks L.A. meetup which none of the major Turks personalities bothered to attend or call in.
