'Glee' among award winners
LOS ANGELES (AP) – 'Glee' has another reason to be happy. The Fox musical comedy was among the winners at the 21st annual Media Awards of the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation. The show's cast and creator Ryan Murphy received the trophy for outstanding comedy series at Saturday's glitzy ceremony at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza. Murphy, in particular, praised lesbian actress Jane Lynch and gay actor Chris Colfer for their contributions.
"We have a great responsibility with the show," Murphy beamed.
Murphy told the crowd that Colfer's character, outspoken gay soprano Kurt Hummel, would have a boyfriend next season, and the pair would become prom kings. Murphy also promised the crowd that Colfer's character "would never be the victim".
