The position that I hate news outlets.

That's not a position on whether or not there's reason to infer homophobic intent from these incidents, which is all that's particularly relevant to the question I asked you.

That's also not a position you've actually committed to. Sure, you state it an awful lot, but you've put forth exactly zero effort to actually defend it, including outright ignoring substantial attacks on the philosophy. Committing to a position doesn't mean repeating it over and over again in the face of disagreement, it means justifying it and making a real effort to logically convince others that it's worth holding.

The joke is, again, a jab at the news outlets blowing things out of proportion.

It's really not. It's a jab at the LGBTQ community being upset by anti-LGBTQ vandalism (while conspicuously not taking a jab at those that were so offended by the pride flag that they felt the need to vandalize it, as it typical of edgy right-wing memelords), a response which news outlets subsequently reported on (with varying degrees of slant from allyship to homophobic derision, depending on the biases of the outlet in question). That news outlets are reporting on it is entirely ancillary to the joke. Again, stop trying to shoehorn everything into your ridiculous fixation on the news. Nobody else cares like you do.
