China's first gay-oriented chat show to debut online

Hong Kong-based Phoenix Television will debut online on Thursday what it bills as the first gay-themed television programme available in China and featuring an openly gay host.
"Tong Xing Xiang Lian", or "Gay Connections", will be aired in 12 one-hour installments on the broadcaster's website and three other sites, a statement on Phoenix's website said.
The live programme will be hosted by Didier Zheng, a French-educated homosexual formerly involved in AIDS awareness activities in China, it said.
The programme's first half will be devoted to discussion of gay topics while the latter half will provide a forum for gay web-users to make friends with other viewers, it said. read more
