Stonewall Scotland have just launched Written Out, a report into the portrayal of gay people in the Scottish Press.
The research showed that while some papers are getting better, many still publish homophobic articles, use outdated stereotypes, draw unnecessary attention to people's sexual orientation, and apply different news values to stories which involve gay people.
Others seem to ignore Scotland's lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender population altogether.
