NBC Goes Gay-Vague in Segment on the Trevor Project

NBC's The Sing-Off did a good thing — it featured the Trevor Project in a lengthy segment on its finale — but then the show took an odd turn by leaving out any mention of the nonprofit's focus on LGBT youth.

AfterElton was first to notice that when Pentatonix visited its charity, like the other finalists on the show, the word "gay" or "LGBT" never surfaced during the entire visit to the Trevor Project's headquarters.

"We are grateful to NBC's The Sing-Off and Pentatonix for ensuring that millions of people know about the Trevor Project's lifesaving services," said David McFarland, interim executive director and CEO of The trevor Project, in a statement to The Advocate. "As an LGBTQ youth-serving organization, at no time did the Trevor Project hide our work or the community that we serve."
