The editor of the Dallas Morning News says that Fox Business Network’s Charles Gasparino‘s claim that he couldn’t get a job at the paper 20 years ago because he hadn’t gone to Harvard is “nonsense.”
“I asked Mong, now the DMN‘s top editor, about Gasparino’s claim. ‘All I have to say about that is it’s nonsense and it never happened,’ he responded.
“But Gasparino stands by his story, while clarifying that the explanation for his snub came in a second-hand, back-channel conversation, not directly from the person in charge of hiring. ‘They also told me I needed to dress better,’ he says. ‘Look, with all due respect, Bob Mong has no clue about a conversation I had with a senior person at the paper 20 years ago. Perhaps they’re just embarrassed they turned me down given my long history of breaking news.'”
