New York Congressman Grimm threatened a reporter who asked him about embarrassing scandal allegations after the State of the Union address last night, saying the reporter is "not man enough", and that he will "break him in half". And that made me think maybe news agencies should hire reporters who are man enough, so that when politicians threaten them, they can actually fight it out in front of the camera. We could get guys like Chuck Liddell and Tito Ortiz to become political journalists, and when politicians will not answer questions, they could put the question-dodgers into submission holds and really get some honest answers (for a change)! And they could threaten that if they find out the politicians were lying, they will hunt them down and beat them up, embarrassing them on camera!
(Hey, if politicians want to play rough, the reporters ought to throw down with them!)
Everyone would pay attention to politics if the interviews were like a UFC event!
Here's the threatening story:
