Newsweek Scribe Setoodeh Defends Gay Actor CritiquePosted on May 11, 2010
Newsweek’s Ramin Setoodeh is careful to point out, in this MSNBC interview clip, that he counts himself among the many members of America’s gay community. That assertion may not do much to placate his critics who took offense to his astounding response to (finally) openly gay actor Sean Hayes’ portrayal of a straight man. But, for the record, here’s Setoodeh’s side of the story. —KA MSNBC via Newsweek: Advertisement Previous item: Senate Gives the Go-Ahead for Fed Lending Probe Next item: Laura Bush Disagreed With Dubya on Gay Marriage, Abortion New and Improved CommentsWe are launching a major overhaul of our comments section.

“His side of the story” is internalized homophobic bullshit.
Please remember this is thesame “Newsweek” reporter who blamed gay high school student Lawrence King for his own murder because “he used his effeminacy like a weapon.”
