Hm... Defenestraton?
And was he investigating the Clintons at the time?
I doubt it. He was card-carrying member of the liberal media.
“initially reported that the producer, Eric R. Wishnie, was hit by a vehicle that fled the scene, but later they said they had located a witness who saw him as he fell from an adjacent building.”
Fake but accurate. My suspicion is that you’ll see more liberal media types taking this way out in the not to distant future.
I thnk an earlier report said he was suspended or something from work - lots of cutbacks in the leftist MSM industry?
Condolences to Eric R. Wishnie’s family and friends.
Jumped, presumably?
Nope. He got caught btween a TV camera and "Chucky" Schumer....end of story.
wonder if he had real dirt on someone and it cost him a toss off the building.
say hello to vince foster and ron brown when you see them.
Maybe, but even libs come into possession of information which is hazardous to their health. See Lance Herndon, of Arkancide fame.
As ratings plunge. All MSM buildings need to have their windows glued shut and ledges removed.
Thank you for bringing some civility to this thread. It sounds like it was most likely a suicide. Middle-aged, unemployed, recently separated from his wife (who was still employed by NBC). Very sad.

Friends described Wishnie as depressed since leaving NBC News last September — the circumstances were not clear — after 19 years there. They said he also had recently separated from his wife. “He seemed tired — very down,” said Pepi Andres, manager at the nearby Jefferson Market. “He seemed like he was out of it, I’m telling you. You can tell in the eyes.”
A possibility. But if he was tossed by somebody who knew what they were doing, it would have been from at least ten floors up. If so, he wouldn't have lived for a couple of hours longer, and he'd be tough to identify unless he had his wallet with him.
I agree.
If they don’t do something to stop the suicides, they’ll have to increase the dead vote.
If he was *suspended*, he wouldn't have fallen.
Prayers up for the friends & family.
NO cheers, unfortunately.
Yep. As much as I detest the liberal media, what it stands for and what it is trying to do to our country, I would not extend that animus to this person or his family or friends.
