A former network reporter was recently arrested for DUI here at the beach.

Former ABC News political reporter Sam Donaldson was pulled over on Savannah Road by Lewes Police on December 1 for a traffic violation. An officer says that he’d been drinking.

Delaware beaches are some of the worst places to drive drunk, especially in winter with nothing else to do. Basically it’s speeding and DUIs for revenue generation.

I remember seeing Sam in Q&As in some kind of public formum. The hubris and arrogance of their inflated opinions of the “reporter” profession were astounding! Both he and that Alfred E. Neumann-looking guy whose name escapes me. Both were/are arrogant assholes.

When I quickly scanned the headline and saw “ABC News Anchor” and “DUI” I assumed it was Diane Sawyer.

I didn’t know Donaldson drank until I saw him sober once.
