Howard Freakin Stern: I will defend Ellen to the end...

[one_voice]

Yes that's right. Howard Stern defending Ellen and speaking out against homophobia. Speaks out against bullying and suicide. Go figure...

1. Hypocrite Howard speaking there.

Funny, before he became "Hamptons Howie" he mercilessly denigrated and made fun of GLBT people with reckless abandon.

Now that he so desperately needs to be accepted by the Hamptons Set, he puts himself forth as the champion of equal rights for all.

Phony fuck, "It was just schtick!" he says.

Then why did he stop doing it?

2. Howard has always been a champion of GLBT

Many people just don't get him. Howard celebrates diversity in his own way.

If you don't get the joke, it's probably on you.

3. Stern has always been a friend of the gay community.

He was calling for gay marriage twenty years ago and has always been in favor of the Community. This is no surprise for those of us who have been faithful listeners.

I have never been a fan of Stern but I'm glad to hear he's an advocate! I didn't watch the video clip before I commented last time. I also read the Rolling Stone article Stern mentioned very powerful. It brought me to tears. http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/one-towns-war-on-gay-teens-20120202?page=5
