Live Nation opposes Prop 8 in California along with other Big BrandsLive Nation has donated $50,000 to oppose a proposed ban on gay marriage in California. The major international concert promoter believes that Proposition 8, which will be voted on in the November 4 California election, takes away individual rights. The company has therefore contributed to the No On Prop. 8 campaign. “Live Nation has always offered equal rights and benefits to our employees’ same-sex partners,” said Live Nation spokesman John Vlautin in a statement. “It is in this spirit that we have made the decision to donate $50,000 to the No on Prop. 8 campaign.” Same sex marriage was legalised in the state this year, but Proposition 8 could see the new law overturned. Apple also recently made major donations to the No On Prop. 8 campaign. |
