MY HEROES: I know I was going to return as quickly as possible to my policy of ignoring Perez Hilton in the hopes that he'd go away, but I had to share. Seems that Hilton is filing suit or threatening to file suit or something, and promised to donate any recovery to the Matthew Shepard Foundation. But because of Hilton's use of that slur, MSF said no thanks -- it didn't want to be seen as approving the use of the language Hilton used (and it probably didn't want to enable Hilton's self-aggrandizing publicity stunt). Some Hilton detractors (including What Would Tyler Durden Do, which, let's face it, uses a voice that's about as homophobic as what you'd probably hear in any middle-school locker room) are so elated by the snub that they're encouraging their readers to chip in a few bucks to the Matthew Shepard Foundation. If you feel the same way, you can too.
