Ray Richmond’s Column, Post Pulled/Does This Mean Merv Wasn’t Gay?

From our Tip Box:

CENSORSHIP @ Hollywood Reporter?? I thought you’d be interested to know that Ray Richmond’s brilliant and brave column on Merv Griffin that you cited earlier has apparently been PULLED, from both the PastDeadline blog AND the HR website. Despicable. I’m cancelling my subscription to that rag, and pray that someone else (EW, Esquire, VF, TV Guide, VARIETY???) makes Richmond and offer he can’t refuse. His talent is wasted on the likes of those maroons.

Richmond and Kevin Allman discuss what sure looks like censorship here.
