Keith Olbermann's Ego is GLAAD for the Gay Love

Keith Olbermann's Ego is loving the gays these days and why? Because they love him.

The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) will award outstanding representations of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community in news and entertainment media at the 20th Annual GLAAD Media Awards presented by IBM. This year there are 185 nominees in 41 categories that include Outstanding Film; TV Journalism; Theatre; Music Artist; and Comic Book; and 15 Spanish language entertainment and news categories. The New York event will be held March 28, 2009 with local presenting sponsor Prudential. Tyra Banks, Suze Orman and Phil Donahue will receive special honors. Special guests include Cherry Jones, T.R. Knight, Jay Manuel, S. Epatha Merkerson, Chris Noth and Keith Olbermann.

Note to GLADD: Shouldn't The Ego's name have been FIRST in that list? Anyway, The Ego would like to invite all of his fans to purchase tickets here.

More Gay Love for Keith Olbermann

Now updated with video.

And look, The Ego is even wearing a tux for the occasion.

Keith Olbermann is a Gay Icon

No really. See-it says so right here.

The crowd's heart at the February 7 Human Rights Campaign gala in Manhattan's Hilton Hotel, it seemed, belonged to a cable television political commentator.

See, they've taken Keith Olbermann to their hearts. And Keith Olbermann's Ego loves nothing more than capturing hearts. And awards. Lots of awards. And that's exactly what they presented The Ego with--another award. So The Ego decided to grace them with its presence because if there's one thing the Ego is guaranteed to show up for it's free food an award.

As Olbermann was poised to take the stage Saturday evening, a clip from that "Special Comment" was replayed to a hearty standing ovation

See, the gays even gave The Ego a "standing O", although the Ego would have preferred bowing or worshiping or something similar but still, close enough.

In his remarks, Olbermann said, "Marriage is about love and with so many enemies arrayed against marriage -- bad timing, poor health, infidelity, impatience, financial circumstances, tragedy, biology -- the thought that some people actually feel the need to lengthen that list with artificial traditions that have exactly the same relevance in today's world as the law that used to make marriage between slaves legally nonbinding, this thought continues to confound me. It is the dumbest thing I've ever heard."

Now the Ego knows absolutely zero about marriage. But love? Oh yes, The Ego is all about the love--loving The Ego is something that The Ego practices every single day. And the rest? Yeah, assorted experience with all of the above.And the whole dumb thing? The Ego does live with Katy. 'Nuff said.

Twitter This.

Keith Olbermann's Ego had absolutely nothing to do with the hacking of Fixed News' Twitter account. The Ego doesn't even know what twittering is all about. But the Ego enjoys reading anything that might remotely be perceived as embarrassing to BOR or Fixed News.
