Translation: One fourth of characters portrayed on TV, in movies, and music are homosexual.
Perception is reality – and the goal of propaganda.
The actual number of homosexuals in any given population is closer to 2%-3%.
James Joiner at OTB explains that people in general are "woefully innumerate," and extrapolates this malaise to the larger policy arena:
"In other words, Americans–and, one imagines, people generally–are woefully innumerate. They simply don’t understand numbers, including even elementary percentages and other statistics. That’s why it’s impossible to have a rational public dialog about such things as federal spending, budget deficits, and the like. The numbers are too big and simply have no meaning to most people, for whom the difference between a million, a billion, and a trillion is simply theoretical."
