The Dallas Morning News refuses to feature same sex couples in its wedding section and now a gay couple is challenging this policy claiming it is discrimination.  More from The Advocate:

A gay married couple are challenging the wedding announcement policy of The Dallas Morning News, which refuses to feature same-sex couples in its Weddings section.

Dallas couple Mark Reed-Walkup and Dante Walkup were recently married, thanks to Skype and an officiant in Washington, D.C., where same-sex marriage is legal. The Morning News won’t publish their announcement in the Weddings section but has agreed to feature them in its Commitments section. The couple are challenging the paper’s decision by filing a complaint with the city, which bans discrimination based on sexual orientation.
