Video: Hungary’s RTL Klub TV Channel Supports Rainbow Families

Commercial television channel RTL Klub has decided to regularly broadcast the “Family is Family” videos made by the LGBTQ NGO Háttér Társaság to increase acceptance of “rainbow families”, as a free advertisement serving the public interest, Média1 reports.

The inclusion of the short films in the programming is of great importance, because they convey the message, which can reach millions, that the concept of a family is much more colourful than some people think and a family is a family even if the parents happen to be of the same sex, the NGO commented.

In the video below rainbow parents and experts answer hateful and offensive anonymous questions in a new joint campaign by Háttér Társaság and rainbow families. 

Watch the video below with optional English subtitles.
