The only reason he has the job is Nepotism and a corrupt media.

The only reason he has the job is the family name. It is a "brand name" in "trust". When the media boasts "most trusted man in America", look out, all journalists should be reporting FACTS. If they admit the others (even on their own staff) can't be trusted always...

Fresh from the orgy of praise for Tim Russert as a great “Catholic” father and family man, his son comes out for the candidate who supports killing babies before and after birth.

I am going to take the high road here. He lost his Father and he is a young kid making mistakes. Some of us have been there.

I'd be willing to cut him a great deal more slack if his 'explanation' hadn't been. essentially: "Yeah, I did it. So?"

The only thing he learned from this is that he has to hide his thoughts better so that those stupid drones won't get all upset.

I will not defend his politics, but working at NBC you have to be a marxist to move up.

Believe me, his stupidity will hurt him down the road.

A good South Buffalo upbringing would have benefited this young man.
