That’s very interesting.

The stuff does wonders...

[tobyhill]

I don’t condone the use of drugs but for him being on CNN I certainly understand.

[toddlintown]

Seems to be a fruit, to boot.

Doesn’t meth really rot the brain? How sad. There may be lots of MSM reporters on the stuff....

Richard Quest is one of the most instantly recognizable members of the CNN team; covering an extensive range of breaking news and business stories, as well as feature programming, he has become one of the network’s highest profile presenters. Quest is firmly established as an expert on business travel issues and currently works as a CNN anchor and correspondent. His regular programs include ‘CNN Business Traveller’, as well as his own hour-long feature program, ‘Quest’.

This guy worked for BBC before CNN.

I liked his delivery, kinda manic unlike most Brits.

[detch]

This guy is one of the biggest jerks on the planet, with an ego almost as large as Jimmy Carter’s.

Actually, as jerks go, they’re tied...

[MIchaelTArchangel]

I guess Richard was Johnny’s evil twin?

[Oldexpat]

He’s a pain to listen too. I hated the sound of his voice on BBC and it was worse on CNN. Hope they sack his sorry tail.

We had to watch this jerk while we traveled abroad, if we wanted to hear news in English. He was always insulting to the USA.
He looked like he was on drugs when he spoke and now we know.

I just knew this guy was on something, LOL.

I would have never guessed it was industrial paint stripper though.

“I’m wondering how he was using, snort, shoot or smoke?”

I’d say he was a puffer if you know what I mean..

[acoulterfan]

This guy is a bit of a wacko chap:

"Hey you have to be on Meth to work for CNN International"

No, but *most* gay men have to be high to have gay sex...

[tobyhill]

If he had a pipe, straw or syringe on him then that's an additional charge.

“Seems to be a fruit, to boot.”

Where was Race Bannon? What will Jonny and Hadji think? Who will walk Bandit? The Dick Quest saga in the park continues. Stay tuned for the conclusion of “Quest for Meth” next week.

[acoulterfan]

a small amount of methamphetamine in a plastic bag, the Times said.

LOL, it doesn’t take very much!
