Part of which says: "The only other person to send us information about Benkof's attack piece was Benkof, himself. He said he wanted to be fair -- and if we changed our policies, he would make mention of it on his blog." That's rich.

Wayne, I've been contacting gay papers and asking if they know who he is as well. I don't know about the mainstream press - they can print whatever they want - but gay papers should not be giving this self-loather attention-grabber a platform. Gary, that was great work you did.
