Wow! I never knew that (if a politician had done this it would have led the newscast every night for two years running!Amazing how reluctant journalists can be about airing their colleagues' dirty laundry) Although I think he was hired originally to fill the "cantankerous contrarian" slot to boost the network's ratings & promote the "appearance of ideological diversity" in the newsroom, he's turned out to be a pretty sad joke.I always suspected that he might have a problem with drinking on the job (he slurs a lot and can often be totally incoherent, even by CNN standards) but I assumed his bosses would make sure someone else would drive him home. I cycle so this would be my worst nightmare... If I have to leave this world, please don't let it be at the hands of some drunken Chicken Noodle Network Hack.(I don't hate everyone at CNN,honestly, Miles O'Brien's actually pretty decent in fact, but John Roberts positively makes my stomach turn, so they've lost me entirely & forever for fear I'll even get the slightest glimpse of him on a promo & lose my lunch.)
Mile's O'Brien??? When did he get reassigned from the Deep Space 9 station??
