Ever time I hear the name Shepherd Smith, I’m reminded of that lyric in that song by Dire Straits...
See the little faggot with the earring and the make up
Yeah buddy that’s his own hair
That little faggot got his own jet airplane
That little faggot he’s a millionaire.
Good lord——can you imagine the uproar if that was recorded today.
I’m surprised the gay lobby doesn’t demand that it be destroyed-——like confederate statues are being destroyed.

I always thought Dire Straits was sympathetic to working-class men in that song, even though they included prissy stink — er — sting to deliver the opening lines “I want my MTV”. The lines you quoted can easily apply to sting.
