Gay Website Queerty Comes Back from the Dead
On April 17th, gay blog Queerty abruptly announced it was closing, effective immediately. Well, it's back—with a new design, a new owner, and all the old gayness.
Hey Anderson, Here's a Great Answer to the Gay Reporter Objectivity Question
Anderson Cooper won't talk about his personal life (read: gayness) because he worries it will damage his objectivity. All-gay-all-day blog Queerty hits one out of the park showing why the Gay-Reporters-Can't-Cover-Gay-Stories argument is bullshit. Get that closet door ready, A.C.
Jossip.com: 2003-2009
Pretty-boy cottage blog mogul David Hauslaib has shuttered his flagship gossip site, Jossip. It had been for sale since last March, but apparently no one wants to buy a blog in these worrisome times.
