Do you think that everyone who works in LGBT media shows up in drag or something? What do you think would occur that would drive some sort of reaction? You know that there are plenty of openly gay members of the mainstream media who cover professional sports, right?
I'm also willing to wager that some LGBT lifestyle magazine did a story on Brandon Ayanbadejo during the 2012 season and the Ravens still managed to not self-destruct before winning the Super Bowl.
