Glee Slammed For Pushing 'Gay Agenda' With Lady Gaga Episode

Glee creator Ryan Murphy has been criticised over the latest episode of the show, which included a tribute to Lady Gaga.

The gay-themed episode, titled Born This Way, aired last night (April 26) and saw the fictional high school glee club perform the singer's recent hit of the same name.

The plot followed the theme of acceptance, and saw the character Kurt return to the school and receive an apology from a closeted gay football player and bully.

The episode has attracted criticism from conservative critics in America.

Dan Gainor told ABC News it was Murphy's "latest depraved initiative to promote his gay agenda”.

He continued: "This is clearly Ryan Murphy's vision of what growing up should be, not most of America's. It's a high school most parents would not want to send their kids to."

Gainor, who has criticised the programme in the past, concluded that Glee's fictional William McKinley high school was the "gayest high school in the history of mankind”.

Glee's creator has previously come under fire from Kings Of Leon after they refused to allow their music to be used on the programme.
