Gay New Orleans Radio Host Seth Dunlap Called a 'Fag' by His Station's Twitter Account

[TexasTowelie]

Seth Dunlap, host of “The Last Lap” on the New Orleans Saints’ radio network WWL Radio, published an open letter to Drew Brees on Facebook last week in which he shared his perspective as a gay man and expressed disappointment with Brees’s involvement with the anti-LGBTQ group Focus on the Family.

On Tuesday, five days after the open letter was published, his radio station’s own Twitter account called Dunlap a “fag”. The tweet containing the slur was deleted, but not before it had been captured and shared across social media.

Not referencing the slur directly, Dunlap tweeted this: “I’m just going to really enjoy knowing somebody is exceptionally upset I get to talk sports every night for a living.”

Deadspin reports: “Dunlap… has otherwise not commented on it specifically, including during his radio show Tuesday night, according to a report from the Big Easy Magazine. The offending tweet was quickly deleted by someone at WWL-AM, but not before it was captured in screenshots and shared around.”
