"Traditionally, the media has been as interested in closeting celebrities as the celebrities themselves have been… I've read things in gossip columns that would never go there in the past and realized, 'Wow, they're going there now.' They don't consider gay a dirty thing anymore. And it's very cool." – Michael Musto on the media's rising queer comfort level. [LA Times]

Musto has been hanging out in Oklahoma and South Carolina again. We are so beloved.

I don't think the media's more comfortable or normalizing, I think that while society is more open than it was 50 years ago, it's still controversial and gets sales. He's mistaken if he thinks outed people are being "normalized" instead of being taken advantage of for gossip.
