    Pretty common knowledge that he's gay. I remember kids gossiping about Sam Champion having a boyfriend on the playground when I was in elementary school

    I always ADORED this guy. He was the only reason I'd watch GMA. Such a sweetie. I'm so proud of him and his fiancé. A wonderful addition to the out and proud community! <3
    ...My gaydar is the worst ever. So (apparently unlike everyone else) I really had no idea has was gay. ^^;

    this. it's common knowledge at least for us that grew up watching him on channel 7 eyewitness news. :slight_smile: all the lady newscasters like ros abrams used to flirt with him and all sort of teasing him in a sense. he didn't come out when he was on channel 7 but i got suspicious after awhile because he seemed like he rolled that way. i thought he came out years ago though when i ran across his wikipedia some years back.

    He doesn't have a degree in meteorology but rather one in broadcast news, so most likely he didn't take physics courses. I think he picked up knowledge about weather as he went along with his job.

    At any rate, congrats to him and his partner :slight_smile:

    LOL. I probably thought of the other direction. Since I thought you have to master the physics side to broadcast it XD

    LOL no. No pressure. I mean, he looks like he would look like a stud in HS. I am not turn on now lol.
