Two hours on television just doesn't automatically happen. I'm up early, I'm reading newspapers online, talking to my staff, coming up with ideas.

I'm a season ticket holder to the Washington Wizards, and I love going to Washington Nationals and Redskins games.

My best stories come from well-placed sources who point me in the right direction.

I love covering stories that have huge historic impacts.

No Republican has ever been elected president of the United States without winning Ohio.

You tell the people the stories the best you know. If there is something you don't know, you be up front and make that clear. You always give the aggrieved party the chance to respond before you publish or go to air. That's just my kind of old-fashioned news values.

My inclination, as an old-school, classically trained journalist, is not to go with a story unless I have it hard. It's not good enough to say something based on rumors that were flying around.
