As a gay media site, we were shocked to discover that multinational, mainstream news network CNN has been gay this whole time, too.Then we realized the outing came via Tucker Carlson Tonight, where facts are about as valued as objectivity. So, not at all.During his Wednesday Fox News broadcast, Carlson welcomed Chadwick Moore for a discussion about Florida’s so-called “Don’t Say Gay” bill.The bill, which was introduced by state Republicans last month, would make it illegal for teachers to talk about sexual orientation and gender identity in Florida primary schools.Moore, a gay man who “came out as a conservative” after writing a puff piece on Milo Yiannopoulos five years ago, characterized opponents of the bill as “wacky.”He added that “gay media like CNN” were wrong to oppose it.Carlson sat with his signature furrowed brow as Moore’s perplexing comment came and went, before chiming into call opposition to the bill nothing more than a “fundraising opportunity for the Human Rights Campaign.”Gay, conservative group the Log Cabin Republicans praised the interview, tweeting that Moore had “called out the Left’s lies about Florida’s parent rights bill.”WATCH: @Chadwick_Moore called out the Left's lies about Florida's parent rights bill tonight on Tucker Carlson!"They don't want you to read it.

Benediction, directed by Terence Davies (A Quiet Passion) and starring Peter Capaldi (Doctor Who) and Jack Lowden (Dunkirk) both as the famed poet.The film follows Sassoon’s life from his time in WWI to his opposition to the government’s continuation of the war, as well as his relationships with men — and his wife — as he comes to understand his sexuality.“A complex man who survived the horrors of fighting in the First World War, Siegfried Sassoon, a soldier decorated for his bravery on the battlefield, became a vocal critic of the government’s continuation of the war when he returned from service,” reads the synopsis. “Legendary still today for his poetry inspired by his experiences on the Western Front, he was adored by both members of the aristocracy as well as stars of London’s literary and theatre scene. He embarked on affairs with several high-profile men as he attempted to come to terms with his homosexuality, whilst at the same time, broken by the horrors of war, his life’s journey became a quest for salvation.”The film debuted at the 2021 Toronto International Film Festival, where it received rave reviews from critics who lauded Lowden’s performance in particular, in this poignant story of self-discovery and loss.
