Update: CNN's Correspondent Richard Quest Arrested for Possession of Methamphetamine in Central Park after Curfew! No Mention on CNN.com about the arrest or the Rope Around His Neck connected to a Sex Toy!
Let me understand this.... CNN Reporter/Correspondent and Program Host -Richard Quest was in Central Park at 20 minutes before 4 AM on Friday April 18- . Playing Dumb, as Central Park has a 1AM curfew- Quick said he wasn't aware of a curfew ( Isn't he is a Travel correspondent?) He reportedly told officers he was in possession of a controlled substance- Methamphetamine. Here's where a speedy resolution came into play. Quest appeared in front of a judge Friday, and the judge said the charges would be dropped if he attends counseling. Wham!, Bam!, Thank-you! All this happened within a 24 hour period. Wow. That's what I call real quick! I wonder how that happened? Did Larry King make a phone call???? I went to the Quest's CNN Blog on CNN.com and it hasn't been updated since December 3, 2007. I guess he has been busy. And by the way, there was no mention of Quest's arrest on CNN.com (update 4/21 still no mention). Hmm. Isn't this news? or does CNN protect its own? Shouldn't CNN be reporting this story? I guess status at CNN has its perks! Also I haven't seen any comment from honcho's @ CNN or Turner? What's up with that Phil Kent? (Is CNN/Turner/Time-Warner going the same route Viacom/Nickelodeon did when Teen Star Jamie Lynn Spears Got Pregnant? NO COMMENT? )
Especially now that the NY Post and the whole worldwide media is reporting Quest had a rope around his neck connected to a sex toy in his boot!
Here is how the Reuters story describes Quest-
Quest is a well-known business news reporter on CNN International and hosts "CNN Business Traveler," as well as his own feature program, "Quest."
