I've never liked Rosie O'Donnell as a comedian (can't stand NY accents for one thing), but I do agree with her politically (mostly) and I especially appreciate what she has done for gay families. Her political rhetoric aside, she has been stalked by the right-wing press ever since she came out of the closet. This isn't about her political views, it's about trying to keep television free of overtly gay voices. Yes her political views help draw fire, but it didn't begin with that(she's been anti-gun for a while now and she wasn't ever a lead story back then,not even during the million woman march.).
This is smear the queer, get off our television you left wing dyke! Ann Coulter, Bill Cunningham, Dennis Prager, and Rush Limbaugh, to name a few, say more outrages things on a minute by minute basis than Rosie has ever said, yet they never seem to be the lead story(except Ann-hole, who was invited on most of the shows to spin her defense of her "harpie" comment.).
Know why? *whisper* They're not gay!

Not sure who "we" are, but if you're talking about the "news" networks, they shouldn't have been on the topic in the first place. If I want to read about Rosie the riveter v. fashion tv's darling, I head to tmz, or other similar such places. Entertainment stars that crash careers or cars should be on entertainment news, not political news.
Of course, talking about them talking about them is a tad bit different. By discussing the stupid battles between the two wannabe Oprahs, the talking bobble heads have turned entertainment news into political news, but not for the reasons they say.
Silence has come :)
