“While I want to thank CBS News for funding this generous gift towards my education, I want to also acknowledge how the recent direction of the outlet stains the legacy of Mike Wallace, the namesake of this scholarship,” Campos said in his speech at the News and Documentary Emmy Awards, to loud applause.
Brave young person, hopeful. Be sure to read the portion about the 60 minutes correspondent's contract situation.
Yeah, this wasn't someone on the way out with nothing to lose. This was a kid who just won a $10,000 scholarship and could very well have it pulled for this. Very brave.
Giving me hope, that little bastard.
