Does gay-bashing Lou Engle have an MTV problem?

Lou Engle is odious and possibly deranged. But is the homophobic evangelist also a bad marketing strategist?

Engle is the Kansas City-based co-founder of TheCall, a youth-oriented “radical prayer” movement. A fierce opponent of abortion rights and homosexuality, Engle raised his profile last year when he traveled to Uganda and endorsed the efforts of lawmakers there to lengthen jail terms and expand the death penalty for gay “crimes.” Engle, however, may find that hating on Ellen DeGeneres is the wrong way to run a thriving youth ministry.
