Ronan Farrow Comes Out as \u2018Part of the LGBT Community\u2019<\/b>

Journalist Ronan Farrow came out publicly as a member of the LGBT community last night at an event for the Point Foundation<\/a>, where he was honored with the\u00a0Courage Award, given to \u201cthose who have advocated for the future of the LGBTQ and allied community and believe investing in today\u2019s potential will produce a brighter tomorrow.\u201d<\/p>\n

Said Farrow, according to a press release from the Point Foundation: \u201cBeing a part of the LGBT community \u2013 which recognized that reporting I was doing early on and elevated it, and has been such a stalwart source of support through the sexual assault reporting I did involving survivors who felt equally invisible \u2013 that has been an incredible source of strength for me. LGBT people are some of the bravest and most potent change agents and leaders I have encountered, and the most forceful defenders of the vulnerable and voiceless, because they know what it\u2019s like to be there.\u201d<\/p>\n

Farrow\u2019s sexual orientation has been a topic<\/a> in the media for years. He was the subject of a 2013 VICE article<\/a> that pointed out\u00a0Vanity Fair\u00a0<\/i>and the\u00a0New York Times\u2019 <\/i>reluctance to cover that topic in profiles of the journalist.<\/p>\n
