Our Invites
With the number of people getting mar-
ried remaining essentially flat, some see
same-sex couples' wedding festivities as the
only way to grow the industry.
Products and services aimed at this demo-
graphic are starting to pop up. Wedding
Paper Divas, an online destination for all
things wedding stationery, has a new
same-sex collection.
After months of research on LGBT com-
munity e-commerce sites, Wedding Paper
Divas’ recognized the growing need for
more LGBT-focused stationery. They then
developed the collection honoring these
unions. WeddingPaperDivas.com

Cronkite
In Doug Brinkly's new best seller
Cronkite, Brinkly reveals that an early
gay rights activist, who demonstrated on
live television while Cronkite was read-
ing the CBS Evenings News in 1973, had
a big impact on the iconic journalist.
Mark Allan Segal, an unlikely eventual
friend of Cronkite's, got his attention
when he challenged Cronkite's cover-
age of a relatively small women's march
but failed to cover 50,000 gays marching
along the same 5th Avenue in NYC. CBS
then started covering gay rights on air.
