[1] Brett Leveridge, interview, "David Rakoff", Salon, 11 June 2001: "I think it's far more politically significant that Outside magazine allowed me to, unself-consciously and completely without comment, be visibly, notably gay in a feature article I wrote for it. It didn't have a problem with that at all, and I don't think anybody noticed. But that seemed significant to me."
