Oprah protege Dr Phil accused of "pathologising" LGBT people

American TV personality Dr Phil has been accused of giving a platform to controversial ex-gay therapists.

The pop psychologist, who does not have a medical degree, first shot to fame as a regular guest on the Oprah Winfrey Show, and his own series of shows and self-help books have proved popular.

In January Glenn Stanton from anti-gay pressure group Focus on The Family appeared as an "expert" on a show entitled "Gender Confused Kids."
