Perhaps because everyone who cares/matters already knew, there isn't really a point in denying or hiding it anymore.

A month or two ago some journalist accidentally said it on air if I remember correctly.



Yes, it was a rather dramatic moment on CNBC, with a columnist discussing the fact that no CEO of a major company was willing to be mentioned as gay:

Yep on CNBC i believe( I hate that channel,it's just ridiculous). What was stupid is that one journalist said T.Cook was gay,others insisted he wasnt.Like "noooooooooooo he's not!" multiple times.

That sums up the whole NBC network for me.

Frankly,nobody cared about Jobs sexual life,and he did a good job at shielding his family from the media frenzy.


I'm pretty sure the reporter said that Tim Cook was open about being guy, which led to everyone reminding him that he isn't, in fact, open about it.


> Frankly, nobody cared about Jobs sexual life

Uh, yeah they did. The Lisa Brennan-Jobs paternity thing was a serious black eye for Steve.
