I think the media is treating homosexuality with kid gloves right now, so yes there is some bias there. Whether it can be described as a "liberal" bias is a matter of semantics. Supporting the rights of homosexuals to live at peace and not be beaten up or murdered oughtn't be a "liberal" or "conservative" agenda, but a human one.

On the other hand, conservatives should be ashamed to side with vicious criminals, no matter the "sexual orientation" of their victims.
