Lesbian Correspondent Wrests Control of Queer Reporting Back From Upstart Middle Age White Guy

“I don't hate gay people,” [Tim] Hardaway said. “I'm a goodhearted person. I interact with people all the time. … I respect people. For me to say 'hate' was a bad word, and I didn't mean to use it.” That's apology-take two.  He didn't mean to hate on us.  And he's surprised at the reaction […]
