"Whatever you choose, however many roads you travel, I hope that you choose not to be a lady. I hope you will find some way to break the rules and make a little trouble out there. And I also hope that you will choose to make some of that trouble on behalf of women." - Nora Ephron
This is true; I've been to "gay bars" before and, last time I checked, I wasn't homosexually inclined.

"It's easier to give up. I'm not a very vocal player. I lead by example. I take the attitude that I've got to go out and do it. Because of who I am, I've got to give everything I've got to come back."
-Ken Griffey Jr.

Where did you come up with that? I just looked up some other articles on this story, because I thought this was new information. I didn't find any reference to the victim of the hoax being married.
The DJs did use some slurs on the air before, during and after this prank that resulted in the parent company issuing new rules about words that were not permissible to use on the air. This article in the Houston Chronicle has more on that mitigating factor.
