Not to mention we really don't know the poor boy's history of mental health. This is a time for sympathy and condolences not crappy judgmentalism.

The sad news deserves only this

Thank you.

I am very, very saddened by the death of this child. SO young and now gone from his parents. I have always liked listening to Bolling and this news is just heartbreaking.

I don’t know if anyone before me has thought or said it here, but I wonder if the kid was harassed or ridiculed at school for, not only being the son of a prominent Fox News conservative, but one who allegedly sent porno to coworkers and was flirting with other women. Kids can be pretty mean, as most of us I’m sure know.

Of course when these kinds of stories involve democrats, which they 90% of the time do, it’s nowhere near as big a deal.

I remember it well....

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/david-fiderer/when-joe-scarborough-drag_b_256428.html

n the book, Scarborough outs himself as the confidential source for Sandy Hume’s blockbuster article for The Hill, which recounted the behind-the-scenes drama of an aborted Republican coup. In July 1997, G.O.P House members, including Scarborough, were fed up with House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who proved to be incompetent when it came to working with people or getting things done.

The planned putsch by some twenty-odd renegade members failed because of a last-minute betrayal by House Majority Leader Dick Armey, who turned on his colleagues after learning that Bill Paxon, not Armey, was designated to succeed Gingrich.
Right after The Hill published “Gingrich Foils Coup By Deputies,” on July 16, 1997, Sandy Hume became famous. His story got plugged by Mark Shields on the PBS NewsHour, by Al Hunt on CNN’s Capital Gang, and by Sam Donaldson on This Week. Hume was interviewed by Bernard Shaw on CNN’s Inside Politics.

One of the top five pet peeves I have in life. That woman and the employees at the IRS must face the consequences for what they did.

Look what didn't happen to Weiner. And, Huma is back with him. They don't care what anyone says or does as long as they are able to implement their ideology in the country.

I hear you. At this point, as far as I know, the matter with Bolling are “accusations” and Bolling has a $50 million lawsuit in the works. He has said he will prove his innocence. I know the left has been after FOX for a long time and have taken down key people - Ailes, O’Reilly, Greta is also gone, they tried to take down Payne, etc, so that FOX has even resorted to financing an LGBT (whatever they are called) convention / meeting / get together, somewhere. I’ll wait for the facts, if we ever get them before I make a judgement. In the meantime, I’ll pray for the Bolling family and wish them well.

Maybe he didn’t. I hope not. I think he was a good on air personality, and an asset to Fox. I can’t believe we are at a place where such allegations are even plausible.

I agree completely. I think that people are quick to convict because they assume the digital evidence is easy to come by just by checking phones which should be pretty straight forward. But maybe not. I believe I read that the accusations stem from incidents several years ago. Now, assuming that neither Bolling or the accusers still have the devices in question, it would make investigating the claims much more difficult. People with the means switch out their phones and computers every couple years, so now we are trying to get cell phone or e-mail providers to cough up digital data from several years ago that may not even exist and we see the difficulty of proving or disproving the charges. Keep in mind as well this isn’t a missing person’s case or a murder investigation. It’s salacious “sexting” between 2 adults. If false, my guess is it’s something like this. “Well sure he sent me these pics, but well that was 3 phones ago and that phone is in a landfill, but my friend Suzie here saw them, didn’t you Sue?”

my gosh, this is heartbreaking.

but not to worry, a misogynistic, rape-promoting racist is still in office in Charlottsville, still paying off his constituents with tens of thousands of dollars stolen from taxpayers under false pretenses, and FOX still refuses to even acknowledge his existence....

so it’s all good, right? /s

Caroline Heldman will pay for everything she did. John McCain is going down & so will she. Let her enjoy her orgasm of pure evil. Eric will have justice, I for one feel he was setup. Am I too believe this skank was sexually harassed by 3 Fox News anchors? All 3? Please! Now his son is dead and karma will be coming to her soon.

I don’t know if the charges were true or not BUT if his son was going to UC Boulder just being the SON of Bolling would be reason to harass him. If that got out, I don’t see how he could stay there, let alone deal with the extra harassment from these allegations.
