Menendez must be sweating bullets—ace WNBC investigative reporter, Jonathan Dienst, is investigating Menendez’s widespread corrupt activities (not in NJ but in the Third World).
Dienst did the towering investigation of NJ Sen Robert Torricelli which forced the crook out of office which aired in a 45-minute long segment on broadcast TV.
Dienst himself has said “....the investigation of Senator Torricellis alleged corruption was an extraordinary exercise in journalism; going out and spending about six months on that story working almost non-stop digging and digging, trying to find corroboration to allegations that the senator had an improper relationship with a convicted felon.”
” So we were out meeting with merchants, meeting with defense lawyers, meeting with investigators, members of Congress, and meeting with anyone who might have information about the senators alleged wrong doing.” ‘’
“We obtained documents, tapes and materials and it was at a very important time. The election was coming up, the balance of power weighed in the balance and the fact that we were able to show and highlight some of the senators activities so that the voters knew. That was an incredible story to be a part of.”
