It was just a quick ad lib after a story, but ABC News’ Dan Kloeffler is making headlines himself today.

The reason? While anchoring ABC World News Now at 3 am Monday, Kloeffler revealed that he is gay.

Kloeffler’s admission came after a story about Heroes actor Zachary Quinto, who recently announced that he is gay.

Speaking matter-of-factly, Kloeffler quipped: “He's 34, I'm 35, I'm thinkin' I could lose my distraction about dating actors for that one.”
