It's a bad choice of words. Granted, I think both 'racist' and 'homophobic' are bad choices of words too. 'Ignorant', 'antiquated', 'outdated', 'out of touch'...those all work just fine for me.

I still think it was just a marketing ploy, but whatever -- he's like the silly old grandpa at the table for Thanksgiving. "Yes, yes, grandpa we know how it was back in your day, thank you for storytime and reminding us why we move forward. Now isn't it time for your medicine?"

Edit: Dammit, I went and forgot the secondary spiel of vile things he spewed (the 'evil murderers' part). I suppose homophobic and racist -do- work for me after all.
