The gay eye. Isn't that what Doug Dannger says he has?

"Doug Dannger -- Newspaper columnist of the Orange County Courier. Since coming out as a homosexual, he
frequently proclaims his status as "a gay man and a gay journalist," although the proclamation is rarely
relevant to the discussion at hand. In many of his confrontations, Doug claims he will go "eyeball to eyeball"
with the caller, even if one of the two of them has to use a shoebox to level off. He declares as the number
one movie of the millennium, The Shaggy D.A., a Disney flick from the '70s. Whenever someone disagrees with
Doug, he insists it must be because of their homophobia. Among his many assertions, Doug believes that gay
journalists, himself in particular, should be trusted with national secrets since they've already proven they
can keep a secret for a long period of time. "I'm a gay man and a gay journalist because I was born that way."
