Southern Baptists end Disney boycott over benefits to gay workers
By ROSE FRENCH
Associated Press Writer
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Southern Baptists ended an eight-year boycott of the Walt Disney Co. for violating \"moral righteousness and traditional family values\" in a vote on the final day of the denomination\'s annual convention today.
\"We believe for the boycott to be effective, it had to have a beginning and an ending,\" said Gene Mims, chairman of the Southern Baptist Convention committee that put the Disney resolution before some 12,000 members at the meeting.
SBC delegates also approved a resolution that encourages parents to investigate their children\'s public schools to determine whether they are too accepting of homosexuality.
