As reported by Howard Kurtz in today's Washington Post:
Are any media types crazy enough to chase a story by jumping out of a plane?
Brit Hume fits the description. The Fox News anchor did a parachute jump yesterday, shortly before George H.W. Bush did so too, and then interviewed the just-turned-80 former president.
"We reporters are supposed to be up for stuff, aren't we?" Hume, 60, said before taking the plunge. "It's kind of an adventure." He said he determined after Bush invited him that "the level of peril in this was not overwhelming."
My sources report that Hume landed far to the right of the former President.
