Thomas Roberts’ “It gets Better” spot…

On Top Magazine writes about Thomas Roberts’ appearance in an “It gets Better” ad…

In an It Gets Better video, Thomas Roberts, the openly gay anchor on MSNBC, says he attempted suicide at age 15.

The It Gets Better Project encourages troubled gay teens to hang in there and not cave in to bullies, because life gets better.

“At 15 I unsuccessfully attempted suicide,” the handsome 38-year-old Roberts says. “Luckily, my sister found me and saved my life. My family, they rallied around me, but I couldn’t tell them what had brought me to that point. But I saw first-hand the pain in their eyes and I realized that suicide wasn’t the answer.”

  1. Roberts seems like a really nice and humble guy. I hope he stays with MSNBC.

  2. Thomas Roberts seems to have a lot of talent and I do hope that he enjoys success. MSNBC ihas certainly built up an empire worth of skill and I assume that they will use it wisely. The talent won’t be the problem if they don’t.
