Double standard

I've read an article from AfterElton. The author of this article mentioned about "double standard" for the matter of the treatment for Adam Lambert that had happened after AMA the other day. Unfortunately many "double standard" exist, they are not only this area. But this is related to fundamental human rights, so this "double standard" includes a serious meaning, I guess.
I haven't read any of comments on this article, so I don't know what the readers of this site think though, I'm really sorry for the people who think they are doing right things. As a human being, we have same rights. Another article from AfterElton says ABC decided to not to move forward at this time. It's about Adam's dropping on ABC. I actually liked ABC because they air gay story line, Scotty/Kevin moments, on primetime as the first network of big four in USA.
Sadly I have to admit that there are still many homophobic people, including my mum.
Anyway, most amazing thing is Adam's reaction. Probably I mentioned it at least several times, he is just 27 years old, and he acted like a broad minded, calm, witty and smart person. He will get through this. I don't have to explain with words to praise and admire him.
