#1 charging that they "choose to hide and deceive

Couldn't be that they just don't believe in shoving it into everyone's face like some special interest zealots?

#2 The other thing is, why would we care? I honestly don't really care.

#3 Odds are neither Cooper nor Smith are gay, and it's just a pack of drama queens smearing people they've decided they don't like.

#6 I think the Gays do their own cause a disservice by this 'outing' bit. It just makes the Gays look creepy for trying to expose some of their own, or as trying to bait hetros with the claim.

I actually think Coopers answer is the proper one, straight or gay, doesn't matter. The reporter should not be part of the story.

#8 The nutjobs/mootbats/loons care BigEd. 90% of humanity just don't give a shit.

#9 My main concern was that these two appeared to go insane in New Orleans during Katrina.

#10 Gay or no, the people behind this gay publication are fucking losers. Reminds me of kids in school tattling on someone.

That explains the hissy fit. (j/k ;-)

#12 I think it's pretty clear that Smith and Cooper were either going to be hairdressers or anchors, unlike Rather who didn't know what to do with his hair.
