Snagglepuss outed on National TV.........

Amazingly, there are people who were surprised at the news.



Snagglepuss Outed On National Television

By Christian Bladt


STUDIO CITY, CA – - Cartoon fans all over the world were shocked by the revelation that one of Hanna-Barbera’s most beloved superstars is a homosexual. Snagglepuss, known for a years as a contemporary of Yogi Bear, Magilla Gorilla and Wally Gator, has been living a lie for the past half-century.

The interesting thing about the revelation is that it was purely accidental. Snagglepuss’s contemporary Huckleberry Hound was on an episode of “Inside The Actors Studio” when host James Lipton asked him what his favorite day of the year was. Hound, who later explained his hearing aid batteries had worn down, interpreted the question as “What his favorite gay or queer was”. His response was “Well, I’ll be darned if’n Snagglepuss ain’t the only queer I know in the funny-paper business”. The studio audience was stunned and taping had to be halted.

Out Magazine issued a statement applauding the move by Hound, saying that “While we disagree with the terminology used by Mr. Hound, if he hadn’t said anything about this, Snagglepuss most likely would have gone to his grave never truly admitting who he was. At least now, he can be comfortable in his own skin
