LUKE RUSSERT MIA AT NBC NEWS (Gets Paid, Doesn't Work)
New York Post ^ | May 11, 2009

Posted on 05/11/2009 10:25:05 AM PDT by nickcarraway

SOME hardworking folks at NBC and MSNBC -- who work long hours for little pay -- are wondering, "Where in the world is Luke Russert?"

One insider sniped, "He was hired last year to be the youth correspondent -- he got a great contract and was supposed to cover youth issues, blog and bring in young viewers, but he's been MIA for a while. It's like, 'Well, that's what you get for nepotism.' "

Well, this is too bad.

Apparently, the kid is a spoiled brat who has a very high opinion of himself - for no evident reason.

I’m sure he’s well liked in the Washington Bureau. Hah!

His "reeducation" is nearly complete.

They're just waiting for the electrode scars on his temples to heal up.

Won’t make a bit of difference. He’ll be promoted over lots deserving young people and become the next host of Meet the dePressed. Happens all the time in Hollywood. All you need is a parent in the business and voila you’re suddenly the next up and coming star.

I saw Luke Russert on MSNBC shortly after his father’s death, and he said, “(So-and-so) was talking with my father and I (sic).” $150K for a Jesuit education, and the kid doesn’t know when to use the objective case of a pronoun. St. Ignatius, pray for us.

Just between you and I, I have ran the kid’s remarks through my spell-checker and find them completely apropos.

The kid is also a Democrat, as hardened in that peculiar heresy as his old man was. Were this 1960, no wait, 1950, I would blame it on the Jesuits. But since then, the Jesuits are under the direction of Father Patrick FitzDesmond and Father Desmond FitzPatrick at The Barney Fwank School of Very Public Affairs.
