(19,382 posts)I did a search. He was good looking at least to me. I dont fault him for doing a story. That was his job. Plus 5 years later? Doubt that was even remotely the reason. People have problems and dont know how to handle them. Like is tough.

(4,333 posts)The reviews of it regard it as poorly-written tripe that got him his fifteen minutes of fame on Fox and Friends and precious little else. He wasnt merely doing his job as a journalist, he was trying to capitalize on the right-wing media feeding frenzy. The whackos on the right will, of course, add his name to the list of people they hold the Clintons responsible for whacking, but nothing can be done about that.
Life is tough and people often make it tougher by making poor decisions.
