Why, that would be even worse than having an op ed fully written which is so crucially deserving of exposure that you resign over it, but then not posting it yourself while you have everybody’s attention.

i thought so but it still boggles my mind that fox news threw him under the bus like that and PEOPLE still think what he says is the gospel (hell most of fox news and other media personalities like joy reid, maddow etc) they give their opinion on news stories more so than reporting the news
