Appears to be a non-notable subject. None of the sources establish notability under WP:GNG. Not certain which SNG applies here, I'm guessing WP:NARTIST, and that one fails too - no evidence that any of the four points there are met. Source analysis:

  • The bizjournals source establishes that he is the host of "Made in America" but doesn't have significant coverage of him, it's about the series.
  • Variety is an interview, which isn't something that establishes notability
  • Grist is written by the subject
  • The Atlantic doesn't mention him in the accompanying text, so I'm guessing he isn't a significant subject in the video (and even if he were, the claim it's supporting suggests that it would only establish when and why he came out of the closet)

A BEFORE search did not turn up anything significant - plenty of things by him, but didn't see anything major about him. I'm also very suspicious of this being paid editing. creffett (talk) 18:13, 8 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
