Seeing Hume’s name reminds me that his son offed himself.
Why would he do this. Family dynamic? Britt is as bad as Bret, for sure.
that’s not fair re Brit Hume; his son’s death was a tragedy.
HOWEVER ... now on FNC - the *NEW* Sean Hannity show featuring ... Donna Brazile.
It’s horrible :(
As the story goes, Humes son was gay, a journalist and having an affair with then Congressman Bill Paxton married to Susan Molinari, the Republicans darling at the time. Newt Gingrich outed the son and several days later he killed himself. Brett Hume was obviously devastated and blamed Newt for his sons death. In fact, when Newt ran for President, Hume virtually destroyed him every chance he had on Fox. It has been said that Fox News intentionally ruined Newts chances of winning the primary in defense of Britt Hume.
That’s disgusting to say that
The story of the son’s death was odd. And after, Brit was mild and meek, no longer a conservative ... don’t mess with the Clintons ...
That is a horrible thing to bring up.
I cannot fathom the pain, no matter what the politics are.
