Page 1 Consider (06/21)

  • Really, Really Rosie: Heroic Rosie O'Donnell is at her finest on her new vlog entries. It's not like we ever paid attention to the other people on "The View" anyway. (NYT)

  • Fahrenheit 98.6: Sure he's a bit of a windbag, but I can't wait to see Michael Moore's latest film, "Sicko." (AP)

  • Word Games: A correction in The New York Times in today's paper says: A front-page article on June 11 about the reaction of Mormons to the presidential candidacy of Mitt Romney, who is a Mormon, referred imprecisely to Mr. Romney’s position on gay rights. While he opposes gay marriage and civil unions, the article should not have said he has embraced an "anti-gay agenda." If embracing systemic discrimination against a certain "class" of people isn't embracing an anti-gay agenda, then I don't know what is. (NYT)

  • Is That So? Federal marshals broke no laws when seizing tape recordings from reporters from The Associated Press and the Hattiesburg American during a 2004 speech by Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, an initial agency investigation found. (AP)

  • Sarah Bellow: Remember Laura Albert -- that nutcase who thinks she's a gay, truckstop hustler named JT Leroy? She's on trial for fraud and her real life is more pathetic than the character she pretended to be. (NYT)

  • Daytime Drama: The show is called "The Price Is Right," but the search for a new host is more like "Days of Our Lives" -- drama, lies and an ever-changing storyline. Did Bob Barker endorse Rosie O'Donnell? Did Bob Barker bash Rosie and vow she'd never host the show he made famous? Depends on the day of the week. (AP)

  • Short Shorts Welcomed: Out in Hollywood has a sexy recap of tennis' hottest men ever, including Aussie Pat Cash and those legs of his. (OIH)

  • Grass Seeds: Four-time defending champion Roger Federer and top-ranked Justine Henin were seeded No. 1 for Wimbledon on Wednesday. The All England extravaganza starts on Monday. (AP)

  • Down Under: A public opinion poll released Wednesday shows a major shift with most Australians now in favor of allowing same-sex couples to wed. Fifty-seven percent of those surveyed said that gay and lesbian couples should be allowed to get married. Only 37 percent were opposed. (365Gay)

  • Real Obvious: "Real World" alum Coral Smith is a lezzie. Duh. (ASL)

  • Who Wants to Marry a Billionaire? Art imitates life as "O.C." star Kelly Rowan finds her own man who could afford to live in a Newport Beach manse. (AP)

  • Equality Interruptus: What looked like a promising move in the right direction in Latin America, Colombia's gay unions bill, has died. (365Gay)

  • Fergie Addict: How do we get dreamy Josh Duhamel away from that crystal-meth whore? (AP)
