This is an interesting article about Fox News anchor Brit Hume. Here’s a bit on his Christianity and his son’s suicide:
“It’s a moment of truth when you realize what you believe,” Hume says. “I realized I believed in God.” He had been “a fallen Christian,” Hume says, but “it was such a devastating loss I was thinking, ‘How in the world am I going to get through this?’ I had this odd thought that I would get a phone call: ‘Brit, this is God.’ I had this idea that somehow I was going to be okay and God was going to rescue me.”
…
Within six weeks, he had received 973 Mass cards. “I cannot tell you how buoyed I felt,” Hume says. “I thought, this is the face of God. I just got on with my life.” Hume now struggles “with trying to make Washington political journalism consistent with an effort to lead a Christian life.”

Brit Hume would be excellent a the new press secretary. Strong on speaking skills, no nonsense in explaining why things are done the way they are, and he could handle those yapping media dogs with the same dignity and class he brings to Fox News. At least a Republican can be heard on Fox without some Dem interupting them all the time.

I’ve seen Brit Hume for years and years and never knew anything about him until a couple days after 9/11 and on the air he made a very bold statement for Christ and I’ve loved him since.
