When was he a "journalist" ?
ABC put him on the payroll just to have access to the Clintons .
Just like Chelsea"s NBC job , which listed her as a special correspondent for $600K , and if anyone needed to talk to her , they had to first ask her producer .

Despite the characterization by police that the afternoon gathering at a Twin Peaks restaurant in Waco, Texas that led to Sunday’s bloody shooting incident was a gathering of criminal biker gangs with violent intent, the meeting appears to have been a legitimate, organized gathering of motorcycle riders meeting to discuss political issues.
A look at the Texas Confederation of Clubs and Independents website and events calendar does show a group that’s focused on legislative issues and elections.
A look at the group’s events calendar shows that the Twin Peaks meeting was listed on the Calendar as a “Region 1 Texas COC&I Meeting”; one of a number of meeting that happen in every part of Texas on a regular basis.
The emerging picture of what really happened on Sunday in Waco raises some doubts about the initial police explanation of the incident as well as their suggested remedy. For example, Waco spokesman Swanton has repeated blamed the restaurant for not refusing to host the event.
However, the very political nature of the Texas Confederation of Clubs and Independents and its website raise troubling First Amendment questions about the police trying to pressure a business to shut down a lawful political meeting that had never led to problems previously, regardless of the people at that meeting.
“These meetings have gone on for 20 years, and we’ve gone all these years without a single incident until Sunday,” said Steve Cochran, a national bikers’ rights advocate from Waco . He arrived at Twin Peaks on Sunday to set up a sound system for the COC&I meeting, only to find that the violence already had started.

Do you really consider any of the major news network anchors to be journalists?

Ben Swann is stepping out of independent media to accept the role of news anchor at CBS46 news in Atlanta. Well not exactly stepping out as I understand, he will still maintain his "TruthInMedia" website going as an independent media arm.
This could get real interesting to say the least. Definitely a wildcard in the local Atlanta news market which also includes the network CNN.
CBS46 hires Ben Swann as evening anchor, replacing Scott Light

"Brian Williams was interviewed by Matt Lauer on the Today Show Friday and he apologized for telling exaggerated stories of his past heroics as a reporter. He felt better after coming clean. During the interview, he refused to apologize for lying but he did admit that he's Rachel Dolezal's black father. " ~Argus Hamilton~
