    Dear Mr. Lopate:

    I always love your show.

    However, today I was shaving and listening to your interview with the wondeful Alfred Molina and part of your conversation was about a woman who was the mistress of Richard Gere and you said that you were worried that Mr. Molina might also have been the mistress of Mr. Gere. He made a joke about it indicating that there would be another movie about that.(I think that's what he said) You both laughed because I think he was rather surprised by your remark.

    As a gay man, I was very upset/sad that you would make such a comment knowing that many of your listeners are gay. I have many, many friends who listen to you and we talk about your show during the day or when we next meet.

    Again, I was very sad and the more I think about it angry that a man of your intelligent and taste would make such a homophobic remark.

    Thank you.

    Sincerely,

    Robert Abrami
