Caught the big story today about you conspiring with the NPR reporter in an attempt to embarrass Gov. Romney through "creative questioning". Don't you find this a little irresponsible on your part? If your ethics are so far in the gutter as to stoop to this level, why are you even in this line of work? Oh, I know why, because you have a specific agenda and you have no limit as to how low you would sink to support that agenda. You really should re-think your "profession", because you are nothing more than an armature!
I think that it's a disgrace that you go on National television and refer to your president as a Mister. You are a disgrace! Didn't you learn anything in journalism school? For one thing you should at least report the news in a fair and unbiased way. That would mean referring to our President Obama as just that "our President".
