A gay country music songwriter and his “husband” ignited volcanic outrage after posting a viral video of themselves taunting their five-month-old baby boy by callously declaring he has “no mama.”
The online backlash erupted shortly after Shane McAnally posted an Instagram video on April 14 showing his partner, Michael Baum, playing with their son Texson, who was born via surrogacy.
In the disturbing clip, Baum asks the baby, “Who do you want, dada or pop?”
The baby replies, “Mama, mama.”
McAnally and Baum then derisively laughed as they asked the question again.
