ELRGAYS, TELL ME ABOUT ARSEN HALL

Via YouTubeIn 1991, late-night talk show host Arsen Hall got to a heated exchange wh gay rights activists om Queer Natn after they dispted his show. The protters were angry at Hall for not featurg gay guts on The Arsen Hall Show.

ARSEN HALL, THE OTHER 'GAY' ON SON VS FAME HEIGHT | WHERE IS HE NOW?

In the exchange, Hall took a firm pro-gay stance, which was a rary on televisn 25 years ago. “You thk I haven’t had somebody on my show bee they’re gay?

To be hont wh you, there are a lot of gay guts on this show, but a’t none of your damn bs that they’re gay.

ARSEN HALL MARRIED, WIFE, GAY, DATG, SON, NET WORTH

“I n give you 20 guts on my show a month [who were gay], but they weren’t talkg about .

IS ARSEN HALL GAY? THE FOREVER BACHELOR’S SEXUALY

The homophobia was (and still is, of urse) graed the culture 's kd of startlg to see Arsen be so open as he fully embrac who Ru was.

My most vivid memory of Arsen was his vilently homophobic reactn to the suggtn that Magic Johnson was fected wh HIV through gay sex. What's homophobic now wasn't back then, for stance.

Arsen is gay. Or has everythg volvg Gays been swallowed up by GLAAD?
