Liberal radio talker Stephanie Miller came out as gay on her nationally syndicated show Friday morning.
Miller, who had sometimes joked about having crushes on men, such as fellow liberal commentator Keith Olbermann, led up to her announcement by tweeting, "Mama's got something to tell you." After making her statement, she received numerous supportive comments from listeners, in both phone calls and online posts. One of her guests on Friday's show was country singer Chely Wright, who also recently came out.
Miller, 48, is a former stand-up comic and for a time had a television show on MSNBC. She grew up in a conservative Republican family -- her late father, attorney and congressman William Miller, was Barry Goldwater's running mate in the 1964 presidential election. Goldwater, who has a gay grandson, voiced gay-supportive positions late in his life.

Trudy Ring is The Advocate’s senior politics editor and copy chief. She has been a reporter and editor for daily newspapers and LGBTQ+ weeklies/monthlies, trade magazines, and reference books. She is a political junkie who thinks even the wonkiest details are fascinating, and she always loves to see political candidates who are groundbreaking in some way. She enjoys writing about other topics as well, including religion (she’s interested in what people believe and why), literature, theater, and film. Trudy is a proud “old movie weirdo” and loves the Hollywood films of the 1930s and ’40s above all others. Other interests include classic rock music (Bruce Springsteen rules!) and history. Oh, and she was a Jeopardy! contestant back in 1998 and won two games. Not up there with Amy Schneider, but Trudy still takes pride in this achievement.
