Sun Sentinel slammed for claiming DeSantis was 'outmaneuvered' by 'Don't Say Gay' catchphrase

Political commentators and more slammed a South Florida Sun Sentinel article that argued Gov. Ron DeSantis was “outmaneuvered” by the “Don't Say Gay” catchphrase that represented the opposition to his Parental Rights bill.

"Classroom instruction by school personnel or third parties on sexual orientation or gender identity may not occur in kindergarten through grade 3 or in a manner that is not age-appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students in accordance with state standards," the bill said. 

Yet opponents have labeled the measure the "Don't Say Gay" bill. The Sun Sentinel politics piece from Anthony Man read that DeSantis and other Republicans were agitated by the messaging, arguing that the reaction from the governor and his Press Secretary Christina Pushaw "shows the effectiveness of the ‘Don’t Say Gay' label."
