Some of those people are out already. And what damage are they doing?

The point of the documentary wasn't to pry into politicians personal lives, but to expose the dishonest ones who were villainizing LGBTs and pushing anti-gay legislature, while being gay THEMSELVES.

"Some of those people are out already. And what damage are they doing?"

keeping gay/lesbian/bisexual actors, actresses, and musicians in the closet and not giving GLBT youth any more role models than the scant few they have.

Okay...so go make your documentary. It might be interesting.

Though, again, a lot of those people aren't exactly "in the closet". (David Geffen? Jan Wenner?) And I don't know how a bunch of those names made it on your list. (Steven Spielberg? I don't think he's inherently interesting enough to be gay.)

I doubt that most of the people on that list are/were even gay. They're also not creating anti gay propaganda and laws like gay Republicans were. So what would be the point? I'd say it's pointless.
