Fred Savage seen at a gay bar: USA Today

On the episode of the Simpsons where the comet was about to crash into the earth, anchorman Kent Brockman ended his newscast with a scroll outing every gay celebrity (slow the scroll down and the list actually includes only members of the Simpsons staff). America's fixation on which movie stars are gay is even more potent than our fixation on which movie stars are short. So it was no surprise that when USA Today published a story with the title "It's a Gay Gay World for Fred Savage," that it became one of the most viewed stories on Yahoo! this morning. And it was also no surprise that when people clicked on the headline, hoping to see a juicy photo of a grown-up Kevin Arnold getting fisted by grown up Paul Pfieffer, they were pissed when the story simply said that Arnold visits gay bar The Abbey in LA with his wife, and NOT JUST to research his role as a gay man on Crumbs. He actually likes the place! Scroll to the bottom of the story and you'll see it only earned 2.5 out of five stars in the satisfaction dept. from the public, who were clearly looking for some hot Wonder Years action. (For contrast, "Man Pleads Guilty to Raping 85-Year-Old Neighbor" from thehawaiichannel.com earned a 4.7 rating.)
