Support for Kevin Hogan, the Massachusetts teacher whose gay porn past was exposed on Fox News, is growing on the Internet.
Officials at the Mystic Valley Regional Charter School in Malden, Massachusetts have placed Hogan on paid leave as they look into allegations broadcast in a Fox 25 News Undercover investigation.
With cameras rolling, a reporter approached the English teacher and crew coach with evidence that he starred in recent gay porn films under the screen name of Hytch Cawke. Hogan appeared in three films released last year, including Fetish World and Just Gone Gay 8, according to the report.
The reporter, Mike Beaudet, confronted Hogan with the allegations on Thanksgiving.
“Do your students know that you've been in these movies? This is you,” Beaudet insisted as he pointed to a flier. “You know what I'm walking about.”
“Do you really think it's appropriate to be working with kids?”
“I don't know what you're talking about. Happy Thanksgiving,” Hogan replied.
More than 2,000 people have joined a Facebook group in support of Hogan and 430 have signed a Change.org petition calling on Fox News to fire Beaudet.
Students at the school have also come out in support of Hogan.
“I think you blew this story way out of proportion and single handedly destroyed a man's life,” a female student tweeted to Beaudet.
“My English teacher is a gay pornstar #nbd,” tweeted another.

How the FOX family of companies even exists at this point is scary...it's all right-wing orchestrated nonsense with no factual basis. Wouldn't it be amazing if the FCC actually did the public a service and pulled all of their broadcast licenses?!!
Not in a million years but it's nice to dream :)

Couldn't agree more about FOX.
Tho I do have this to add...my sister worked as a lower level producer for FOX out of Pittsburgh before her untimely death back in 2001.
At her funeral, which was the day after Christmas, over 100 FOX affiliated people attended not only her service but also her graveside service as well, among them, the east coast regional director and a senior VP.
I think FOX has lost it's way since then.
