Fox News anchor Shepard Smith has been trending on social media all day after confirming in a Huffington Post interview what everyone has already known for years: He’s G-A-Y gay.
Shepard was asked if former Fox Chairman and CEO Roger Ailes ever used homophobic slurs in his presence, to which the 52-year-old anchorman replied: “No, never. He treated me with respect, just respect.”
And just like that, his glass closet was shattered.

How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Shepard also said that, despite rumors to the contrary, Ailes never tried to prevent him from coming out publicly, and that the two had a warm and loving relationship.
“He was as nice as he could be to me,” he says. “I loved him like a father.”
So how have people responded to the non-news that Shepard Smith is a Homosexual with a capital H? Let’s talk a look…
Michelle Tanner could hardly believe it…
Neither could Rita Repulsa…
Oprah couldn’t wrap her head around the news…
Same with this girl…
Anderson Cooper was absolutely floored…
So was this lady…
Even Hillary Clinton was caught off guard…
Michele and Stephen, too…
Some people found themselves rather excited by the news…
While others knew all along…

I think there should have been more “While others knew all along” gifs.

I have a sinking feeling that within the next year just as we see those sickening ass whores being passed off as news anchors on Fox News Channel we will soon see a bunch of equally sickening ass queens being passed off in the same manner. Have you noticed how high those skirts are on those women who are passed off as anchors? I can see the “guys” being scheduled on late, late night with a desk around a swimming pool and all wearing athletic t-shirts, tight abs and ass for days just to get us to watch. News is nothing else but entertainment targeted at certain audiences and sooner or later we will get our day too.

I didn’t know who he was, but…good for him. The more high-profile guys who are “out” the better.

So Ailes was good to him…..but notice he didn’t come out until after Ailes was gone.
