Congratulations to all of the nominees and award recipients for the 2012 GLAAD Amplifier Awards, honoring outstanding images of the LGBT community in public relations and advertising.
In a feature segment on Friday, CNN reported on the recent surge of LGBT-inclusive advertising, taking special note of JC Penney's Father's Day ad featuring a Dallas-based gay couple and their two children.
Cooper Smith Koch might be better known to most of Americans as the 'gay dad on the right' in JCPenney's ad featuring Cooper's family. Cooper worked with GLAAD to speak out about how the ad has impacted his family in media outlets like CNN and in a Father's Day post on Huffington Post Gay Voices.
