Joy Behar: Isn't Janet Napolitano Gay?

Joy Behar: Isn't Janet Napolitano Gay? | News | Advocate.com:

"Quickly becoming second only to The Rachel Maddow Show as prime time’s most gay-centric news talk show, The Joy Behar Show has been generating a lot of press for its coverage of “don’t ask, don’t tell” and the National Equality March.

But this Monday, an exchange between Behar and guest Dan Savage that was largely overlooked by the press had her wondering if Homeland Security secretary Janet Napolitano is openly gay.

Napolitano had appeared on The View earlier in the day and explained why President Obama has 'dragged his feet' on gay rights. Savage countered that Napolitano herself has done nothing for gay rights.

'Isn't she gay?' Behar shot back.

'I've never slept with her,' Savage wrote back.

'You know what, guys? Neither have I,' Behar said.

Long rumored gay, Napolitano has consistently said she is not."

...interesting... I don't believe there is any reason to out someone who isn't working against gays, but I've been curious myself...

In anti-gay attack, AIM falsely asserts "pedophile" Jennings was "teaching 14-year-old boys" about sexual practices | Media Matters for America : "In attacking the media for allegedly insufficient coverage of Obama administration official Kevin Jennings, a blogger for Accuracy in Media, which purports to 'set the record straight on important issues that have received slanted coverage' -- and which has a record of antagonism toward gays -- smeared Jennings as a 'pedophile' and falsely claimed that '[v]ideos have surfaced of Jennings teaching 14-year-old boys the dangerous sexual practice of 'fisting,' and discussing with them the particulars of oral sex.' In fact, Jennings did not conduct that seminar and, in fact, reportedly criticized it when he became aware of its content." AIM is a crock. They're nothing more than Republican mouthpieces.

NEW BILERICO GUEST POST: What the GLAAD Network Report Means

MY NEWEST CONTRIBUTION TO BILERICO; PLEASE VISIT BILERICO.COM FOR THE ENTIRE POST! Yesterday, GLAAD released its Network Responsibility Index report for 2009, ranking the top broadcast and cable networks on their LGBT inclusivity in programming. ABC led the broadcast networks this year with depictions like Ugly Betty 's gay Ken-doll Marc, played by Michael Urie, among other depictions on other shows. HBO led the cable networks with shows like gay-created True Blood , No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency , and Big Love ; with over 42% of programming being LGBT inclusive. We're not surprised that there were so many cable networks that ranked high on the index; #2 Showtime's programming consisted of 24% LGBT-inclusive programming, #3 TNT dedicated 19% of its hours to LGBT-inclusive content, #4 MTV 17% (really, only 17?), and #5 Lifetime—the in-denial fourth gay network—had 14%.
