Luke Russert , an MSNBC reporter, was the object of a little outburst from Rep. Charlie Rangel of New York yesterday, when he asked him a loaded question. According to the Washington Post , Russert asked Rangel if he thought he'd lose his job over the recent controversy he was implicated in. A House ethics subcommittee found Rangel had violated ethics rules when he allegedly used his position to benefit his financial interests. Rangel's response? "Well, you're young, I guess you do need to...Read Full Story
Luke Russert is profiled in the Buffalo News. Not the kind of eastern elite media coverage the son of Dead Tim Russert must lust for.
In the profile, the writer breathlessly (can one write breathlessly? I’m saying “yes”) outlines Russert’s killer scoop.
The young reporter with the familiar Irish eyes wouldn’t let Rep. Anthony Weiner get away with it. “The picture that went over Twitter to Genette Cordova — is that you?,” he asked, politely.
“Well, let’s keep in mind what happened here...Read Full Story

Much like the claims of the most transparent administration ever – in Obama-era Newspeak terms, you must just assume the opposite to be true. Charlie Rangel , after having been forced, kicking and screaming, to step down as Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee in March, has now been charged with multiple ethics violations by a bipartisan House committee :

Poor Luke Russert. When we heard the news that his first report for Dateline on NBC would be airing this past Sunday, we got excited for him. It’s not everyday that a Capitol Hill correspondent has a crossover hit and goes big-time with a Dateline feature. It was an examination of the case of Jon-Adrian “JJ” Velazquez, a man convicted of murder and set to spend his life in jail. After Velazquez sent repeated letters to Dateline proclaiming his...
