href="http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/nsw/junk-food-alcohol-and-drugs-are-fuelling-health-crisis-in-young-adults/news-story/662092997894ce8de174f2d4a7474765">ran a story</a> covering the apparent “health crisis” facing young Australians. The report was based on a NSW government survey covering drug use and eating habits amongst young people. But it’s the accompanying infographic, suggesting that same-sex attraction is unhealthy, that’s attracted the strongest response and led to the paper’s editor issuing a sort-of apology.</p> <p>Here’s the image:<img decoding="async" width="660" height="571" class="aligncenter size-thumbnail wp-image-112382" src="http://junkee.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/daily_tele-660x571.jpg" alt="daily_tele" srcset="https://archive.junkee.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/daily_tele-660x571.jpg 660w, https://archive.junkee.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/daily_tele-680x589.jpg 680w, https://archive.junkee.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/daily_tele-480x416.jpg 480w, https://archive.junkee.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/daily_tele-320x277.jpg 320w" sizes="(max-width: 480px) 480px, 680px" />Yep, that’s a statistic on the number of LGBTI high school students in Australia… under a headline about how unhealthy young people are. The other statistics cover issues like drug use, obesity and psychological distress, so including the number of same-sex attracted school students in Australia does feel a bit of out place.</p><div class="JURPGxMk"><div id="advert-mantelpiece-incontent" class="advert-mrec advert-mrec-incontent"></div></div> <p>The graphic was slammed on social media.</p><div class="PmPWhuks"><!-- /18345677/ImpressionTracker --> <div id='teads-outstream' style='height:1px; width:1px;'></div></div> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550"> <p lang="en" dir="ltr">The <a href="https://twitter.com/dailytelegraph">@dailytelegraph</a> says same sex attraction is a "health concern."

A <em>Daily Telegraph </em>staffer posted on Facebook today that the graphic and the story “shouldn’t have gone together”.</p> <p>They were worked on separately, and put together at two minutes to deadline,” they said. “It was an accident.”</p> <p>A number of politicians have criticised the paper and called for a retraction and an apology. Greens senator Janet Rice said “To align being gay or lesbian next to obesity or drug addiction sends a dangerous signal that must be immediately condemned. <em>The Daily Tele</em> has never been sympathetic to struggling LGBTIQ students but this is something else altogether.</p> <p>“To then also headline this ridiculous statistic with ‘young Aussies only have themselves to blame’ suggests that being gay or bisexual is a choice,” she said. “Of course that is not true and also sends a dangerous message.”</p> <p>Labor’s shadow minister for health, Catherine King, said the graphic was “unacceptable and ill-informed”.</p> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550"> <p lang="en" dir="ltr">Unacceptable and ill-informed.

The story in no way suggests, or intends to suggest, that same-sex relationships are unhealthy.”</p> <p>Dore is actually right, the story doesn’t suggest that. But the problem isn’t with the story, but with the infographic. And in another situation the paper might deserve the benefit of the doubt, but after running a campaign <a
