Anderson Cooper has officially come out of the closet. The CNN anchor wrote a letter to political blogger and friend Andrew Sullivan and it was published July 2, 2012.
He wrote:
"I've always believed that who a reporter notes for what religion they are, who they love, should not be something they have to discuss publicly. As long as the journalist shows fairness and honesty in his or her work, their private life shouldn't matter."
He insists that's not the case, "the fact is, I'm gay, always have been, always will be, and I couldn't be any more happy, comfortable with myself, and proud says Cooper."
The CNN host emphasizes that his role as a journalist supersedes his public discussions of his sexuality.
He explains, "Since my early days as a reporter, I have work hard to accurately and fairly portray gay and lesbian people in the media - - and to fairly and accurately portray those who for whatever reason disapprove of them." Cooper continues, "Its not part of my job to push an agenda, but rather to be relentlessly honest in everything I see, say, and do. I've never wanted to be any kind of reporter other than a good one, and I do not desire to promote any cause other than the truth."
