Joined BBC in 1985 and then was switched to CNN International in 2001.

If the people giving you the news on your television look and sound like crazy drug abusers it's because they are.

He must not have been using for long. He has good teeth...for a Brit...and for a meth user.

[Berlin_Freeper]

Expensive cosmetic dentistry. I don't think there are many 46 year olds who suddenly get an interest in such a drug.

"I've got some meth in my pocket..."

"Excuse me. Do you have a shovel. I'd like to hit myself in the face with it."

DUH!

Loitering for amphetamine-fueled gay sex in the park at 4am is my guess.

I've always thought that guy was a little too amped for so early in the morning on CNN Financial.

[pepsionice]

Yep...what idiot would show up in Central park at 4AM? You’d have to be an absolute nut and without any fear of being robbed.

I was kinda partial to Richard Quest....he runs a decent show and is usually very balanced on reporting...but I always got the impression that he was a bit peppy and “lit-up” on some kind of speed. There was a episode of the CNN International morning show (Europe-time) that he went on a comical confrontation effort against the regular financial wiz from the London bureau. This financial wiz almost lost his cool and would have slugged Quest if he had been a chance. I thought Quest did the thing on purpose to get slugged but now I’m thinking he was all lit up on some kinda drug at the time.

The interesting thing....if the guy is on meth...he is going downhill fast. I’ll bet he is turned loose within six months by the CNN squad.

I liked his brother, Johnny’s, show, when I was a kid. What ever became of Hadji and Bandit, I wonder?

[TruthShallSetYouFree]

Loitering for amphetamine-fueled gay sex in the park at 4am is my guess.

Is that why they call him Dick Quest?

[DainBramage]

One homo looks at another homo and says “I cant stop now..Im on a quest”!

[wiseone]

His next next job, press aide for obama’s campaign, he needs another fag on his entourage to spin the bullshite ,besides he can scout out dope for obama’s nose

[chadwimc]

Haji blew himself up in a failed suicide bombing in the Kashmir region in the early 80’s. Bandit’s fate is unknown...

[Dr. Ursus]

Why, Yes, officer that’s a banana in my pocket. Why do you
ask?

[gr8eman]

Pack of Fags, indeed.

[Vision]

Do you expect anything more from the MSM?

[Leisler]

Today's New York Post, a real paper, reported he had a rope tied around his neck and then tied to his genitals, and a sex toy in his pocket. He was with an unidentified male ‘friend’.

[ovrtaxt]

Funny that a guy named “Richard Quest” was found ‘loitering’ in a park after 1 am in such a condition. Some jokes write themseves....

[cartan]

Check out the details about CNN’s “knotty boy”…

Wow! I’ve always disliked the guy for his awful way of talking but never expected him to be this weird!

[Tainan]

I thought you were joking...and then I searched... KINKY NEWS NETWORK CNN'S QUEST A VERY 'KNOTTY' BOY

[april15Bendovr]

I have suspected for a long time that most reporters for CNN need to be habitually inebriated.

If I had to protect Saddam and the Democrats all the time I would want to remain in a constant stupor.

[Berlin_Freeper]

That’s sick.

And while the Pope is in America too!

Sick Sick Sick!
