Back in her Heche days, when she first came out publicly, Ellen DeGeneres was 24/7 in your face proclaiming her lesbianism. You couldn’t go to the supermarket checkout without seeing some loud headline featuring one or the other or both of them, mostly DeGeneres. She eventually cut back on that, but for a while it was beyond tiresome.
There have been no corresponding tabloids proclaiming DeGeneres’s kindness, generosity, respectfulness nor lovingness, casting her as a Latter Day Oprah. So, the ‘values’ she’d be most noted for are those of the gay lifestyle. THAT is where the problem lies, apparently for many. Personally, I could care less in this instance. I neither watch “Ellen” nor shop at JCP, and its spokesman would have little to do with whether I chose to shop there or not.
The tabloid coverage of Ellen was instigated and sustained by the tabloids. Though the headlines were about Ellen, they were not there at the behest of Ellen. Yes she had a relationship, but she was not doing anything to promote the headlines. People buying the tabloid rags were promoting it. I don't buy or read tabloids so I cannot testify to their content. However, since the time of her first sitcom, I cannot remember a single quote from Ellen that promoted homosexuality. I have heard her defend herself when attacked and answer questions honestly.

Since when do tabloids proclaim postive behavior by anyone? The fact is that Ellen through her show and several other groups she is active in provide cars, appliances, scholarships, financial assistance and a host of other forms of assistance to single moms, down on their luck families, childrens charities and families of the military. Much of it is displayed on her show, but the majority of it is done behind the scenes. But who really cares, Ellen is gay, so Ellen is EVIL.
