[GoodFella69]

Does anyone else find irony in the following news? Reminds me that "People Who Throw Stones Should Not Live in Glass Houses."

As someone who thinks cheating is wrong regardless of the circumstances I don't think its in the same boat as child molesting. If he was a marriage counselor or some soft of relationship expert who judge those for cheating on their spouse then id be calling him a hypocrite.

But the young lady in question is 20 years younger, put that in proportion...

This is absolutely not an endorsement of pedophilia, but Chris Hansen, is the most judgmental, sanctimonious knife-twister on TV. He also hosts a program that catches female escorts and the men who hire them...and he enjoys it so thoroughly (pointing out sanctimoniously that these "johns" are married and cheating on their wives). It's gonna be nice to see him squirm under the magnifying glass for awhile. "Have a seat right here, Mr. Hansen!"

Yeah, but at least she was legal. He is annoying, but I agree with joseph this does not compare with child molesting.

Hopefully this Guy will disappear real fast from Cable with his constant reruns! All the "Bustees" sort of got the last laugh. Not that this is anything like the situation as pedophiles though.

[Boink]

I love this! To me, he was always as creepy as the pedophiles he snared.

We'll see

 

I dunno...we'll see how this story turns out. This was done with the aid of the NATIONAL ENQUIRER. They're like the CNN of gossip newspapers.

While there is no comparison between the crime (pedophilia) he has been exposing and the betrayal he has been committing against his wife, I knew long ago he would be exposed for something. Guys who take great satisfaction in the ruin of others, assuming the role of moral authority and have a high opinion of themselves, usually have dark dealings of their own. Not surprising to read this at all.

Well said. I wonder if this means Nancy Dis-Grace is next to get caught?!

Uh No... I would think The Enquirer is closer to "Fox News" when it comes to Sensationalism for the sake of it.."The Truth" not alot of it most of the time! BUT then again what starts out as Gossip doesn't always end up nothing but gossip!

[CowboyUp]

Jeez! IF this story turns out to be true, that is pretty mind-blowingly stupid behavior from this guy. He is a nationally-known television personality and he takes his mistress (who is also a local tv personality) out to dinner at the Ritz Carlton? I mean, shouldn't he have at least gotten a room and called room-service instead? He seriously thought NOBODY would recognize his face? I wonder if he subconsciously wanted to get caught?

[happyguy2]

Like everyone else, I abhor child abuse and could never find any circumstance when it might be acceptable. But, I have always wonderred if it was really necessary for all the public exposure to root it all out. So, the saying, what comes around goes around, somehow seems to apply here - if it is true. Marriages break down every day, people cheat on their spouses. Somehow, the horror of marriage breakdown gets worked out - usually privately. The fact that this one seems to be being drawn out in public is the sort of poetic justice here. The story made it into at least one tabloid entertainment show last night.
