how the orange shitbag treated this extremely well-seasoned reporter. I just will never be able to process that people in this country actually like his behavior or him and voted for him and still support him.

We need the good reporters/media more than ever right now. I've always held the BBC in high regards. Wish I could say the same for some of our networks and the fluff they put out there as "important".
