Outrage argues that several American political figures have led closeted gay lives while supporting and endorsing legislation that is harmful to the gay community. The film examines mass media's reluctance to discuss issues involving gay politicians despite many comparable news stories about heterosexual politicians and scandals. Outrage describes this behavior as a form of institutionalized homophobia that has resulted in a tacit policy of self-censorship when reporting on these issues. The film is based on the work of blogger Michael Rogers and his site BlogActive.com.

Their stories show many common themes, such as the lack of recourse to an impartial justice system, reprisals against survivors instead of against perpetrators, the absence of adequate emotional and physical care for survivors, the unhindered advancement of perpetrators' careers, and the forced expulsion of survivors from service.

Filmé vers 1965, ce faux documentaire ahurissant du sultan de l’obscène Joseph P. Mawra ne recule devant rien pour exposer la « détresse » lesbienne. Bien entendu, il ne s’agit là que d’un grindhouse destiné aux pervers — mais aussi d’un document incroyable sur le Greenwich Village de l’époque.
