From the article:

"I believe that it was a PR stunt by OkCupid, that the company isn’t really committed to gay rights at all, and that OkCupid co-founder Sam Yagan was particularly hypocritical in this," Arrington writes on Uncrunched.

According to federal election records, Yagan donated $500 in 2004 to U.S. Congressman Chris Cannon who has a "special kind of hate for gays," Arrington writes. Cannon received a 0% rating on supporting gay rights from the Human Rights Campaign. He also voted for a ban on gay adoptions, and supported a constitutional amendment defining marriage as only between a man and a woman, Arrington writes."
