Respect? yes, Hero? no

The guy is a TV announcer. His life is in front of the camera. If I had heard about this without the footage, I might have had more respect. But because of the footage, I am inclined to be skeptical. These guys will do anything for attention and ratings.

Would you respect Rush Limbaugh more if he had done the same thing? It's all about self promotion. No agony is too small or too great to miss a photo opportunity.

I do not think it is just for attention. His job is to tell what is happening is how I see it. Shepard Smith reported on the conditions in New Orleans for such a long time.

No Rush Limbaugh cannot do anything to cause me to have any respect for him.

"Journalists" and I use the term loosely, that injected themselves into situations in Haiti would not by the same kind of journalists who judged themselves to be so objective that they would not warn our military of an impending attack in Afghanistan or Iraq would it?

There are mercy flights to Haiti all the time. It would cost nothing to start repatriating Haitians so they could help their countrymen and women. Send them back, starting right now.
