This won't mean much to many, but this guy used to be in Tulsa and was at one time the most hated man in town.
http://www.examiner.com/nonpartisan-in-nashville/abc-s-sam-donaldson-slams-michael-delgiornoABC's Sam Donaldson SLAMS Michael DelgiornoIn Nashville on Wednesday, Super Talk 99.7 WTN's Michael Delgiorno was filling in for fellow talk show host Ralph Bristol who normally does the morning show.
Bristol does a regular segment where veteran news anchor/reporter Sam Donaldson who retired from ABC News will call in and discuss with Ralph the topic at hand which usually runs political. In Ralph’s absence this week Delgiorno took the call.
Donaldson has had a long career in the media. He once reported from the Vietnam War, he’s covered Reagan and Bush, out of all the things a person could pick his brain over, Delgiorno asked Donaldson why Obama wouldn’t just hand over an original birth certificate to satisfy the Birthers who refuse to accept that the President is in fact a citizen of the United States.
Obviously annoyed at first Donaldson answered " I guess you're asking the wrong person aren't you Michael." but that didn’t stop Delgiorno who kept on and on with all those moronic Birther talking points when Donaldson told Delgiorno he should look into his heart and question himself on why he really hated the President so much. Michael said he hated the President because of his politics but went straight back to the Birther conspiracy.
Delgiorno, who had just been b*tch slapped by the 76 year old reporter didn’t seem to take the hint as he kept trying to shove Birther meat down Donaldson’s throat until Donaldson had finally had enough when he commandingly told Michael to “Get a life!” not once but twice.
Delgiorno took it on the chin, let Donaldson go and that was the end of the show.
