    Hi all - I apologize in advance. I have not started many topics here and I don't know if I am making any forum etiquette mistakes.

Back in 2005, a group of high school students were watching The Apprentice as part of their Business class. Teacher Dan Smith encouraged the class to write to Donald Trump, and tell them what they were learning from his show. Trump responded by personally inviting the entire class to Trump Tower in New York City. A NewsChannel 13 photographer and I were invited to tag along. I had seen The Apprentice. I knew that Trump wasn’t a very nice guy. I knew...
