HomoQuotable – Michelangelo Signorile

“The news on Friday about Helms’ death was certainly satisfying for those of us who experienced his reign of terror, and I among others gave him a fitting send off. “But let’s not let history forget that a powerful gay man was instrumental to Jesse Helms, even as Helms was vilifying and demonizing gay men and allowing them and and …

Smiley Boys

Last night I stopped by for a few drinks in the swank Chelsea pad of Sirius FM host Michelangelo Signorile (left) with cub cutie Corey Johnson (center) and über-blogger Andy Towle (right). We gossiped about other bloggers (of course!), gay politics, and the merits of Fire Island versus P-Town. (I remain agnostic on the issue.) Hard to believe that I’d …

Rethinking Merv Griffin

Spurred by Michelangelo Signorile’s withering appraisal of Merv Griffin’s legacy as a closeted gay man, the Hollywood Reporter yesterday published a column posthumously outing Griffin, something the mainstream media had failed to do definitively, despite some making references to Griffin’s sexual harassment and gay palimony lawsuits. After reading Signorile’s post and stewing over it a couple a days, I appeared …

Sanchez On Signorile

Tune into Sirius OutQ at 4:30pm today, when Matt Sanchez will appear on the Michelangelo Signorile Show. As most of you may know, Signorile is largely credited with popularizing the term “outing”, when his short-lived OutWeek Magazine (’89-’91) outed celebrities such as David Geffen for remaining silent on gay rights.
