Leading LGBTI mental health expert, Paul Martin, has written to Network Ten to express his concern over the hiring of controversial New Zealand broadcaster, Paul Henry, as co-host for its flagship Breakfast program due to be launched early next year.

Martin, a Brisbane-based psychologist with over 25 years experience in dealing with mental health issues affecting LGBTI people, told SX that media reports of comments Henry made in 2009 while a live morning show host for TVNZ about homosexuality being "unnatural", were somewhat disconcerting.
