Hume thinks newt killed his son. His son committed suicide because newt and someone else were going to out an affair he was having with a married male congressman, so they say. I learned this here on FR. I’d think he’d have to recuse himself this election...

Apparently this was an older conspiracy theory that had Dick Armey as the one who threatened to "out" Sandy Hume. But RECENTLY in some newspaper Susan Molinari added Newt to the story. Guess whose campaign Susan Molinari is an advisor on? Talk about dirty, stinking politics, this is IT!

If it’s just a political stunt then why would Brit Hume be reacting so violently on air? It’s weird. I have no knowledge or opinion of the situation but it seemed like there would have to be a personal grudge to explain brit’s unprofessional behavior.
