Did "Good Morning America" remove a man who appeared to be dozing off during Democratic Senator John Edward’s town hall meeting on Monday? Early in the 7am hour, the man (pictured at right) appeared to be sleeping, or at least dozing, while Edwards discussed his plan for Iraq.
Around 7:11, the individual, who was seated to the back and right of Edwards, mysteriously disappeared (see video below). Diane Sawyer even remarked how audience members for the New Orleans-based event had "gotten up early" to join him. Perhaps the network found it unacceptable that someone might perceive the former trial lawyer to be less then enthralling.

No producer would want ANY guest with a snoozer on camera.
And do learn a bit of language, please.

7AM in New Orleans. I’m surprised they could find anyone who wasn’t drunk, hungover or asleep.
To: Pyro7480
That's too funny...that dude was stone cold out.
I worked with a guy that dozed off during just about every meting he attended.
The look on his face when he was drifting off was priceless.

He looks like a homeless that ABC paid to participate.

Perhaps the network found it unacceptable that someone might perceive the former trial lawyer to be less then enthralling. Or the guy was (rightly) embarrassed and moved.

I think any professional organization would get someone sleeping out of the background. I don’t see this as something nefarious.
