He's daring to speak passionately and emphatically about a horrible situation. THey don't like that so they are saying he has lost it.
Did you actually SEE Geraldo? or not?
He is a professional. He is paid the big bucks to do this in a professional manner.
The ones who have done the best job IMHO, are the ones who have been there & done that....Steve Harrigan comes to mind, Rick Leventhal. Both were embedded in Iraq. I have to add Orlando to the A list because right now, he is my favorite. See my tag line.
I am wondering if this is the first time Shep has been as close to this type story as he is now. It is one thing to report death and destruction after the event. But it is baptism by fire if he has not been this close before and has lived with the stench of death for 5 days.
The biggest clue is when he told Sean "This is all the perspective you need." His tone of voice had that something which signaled he may very well be close to losing control.
But once again, he is a professional and paid to be a professional. If the time has come to pull him before he cracks, FOX needs to pull him. They are doing him no favors letting him stay if this is the case.
As for Geraldo, he has been there done that so many times I have lost count. He gets emotional (it must be in the contract, LOL! " Geraldo emotes 3x a week"), but I have never seen him this intense. It may be because he has an infant at home. Personalization. But if Geraldo needs to decompress, he should be pulled.
