While I can understand your concern (after all, to young children these characters are 'people'), I have to question the motivation of those who would attempt to assign a 'sexual orientation' to a puppet in a children's show.

Agreed. Especially if you have to dig down so deep as the original article does to use obscure slang terms that 99.999% of the audience would never know. "Mo" = gay? Really? I've heard of "Mo" being shorthand for Maurice or Mohamed, but never as slang for gay.

Now it becomes clear. Cher (gay icon much?) films music video "If I could turn back time" on the "Mighty Mo", BB-63.
