Richard Quest - WTH Briton?

Been watching him on CNN, covering BRexit. This guy is something, he's like a mad genius. Between finance, aviation and politics he's a freaking font of knowledge. But kind of a character though, right? I was curious so I googled. Oh my.

I like him.

Sounds like something I would like to see.

I think he is funny and yes, very knowledgeable.

Do you have a link to the show you are watching? I am watching CNN however they are not showing him at this time.

He was on earlier as an analyst. And he was on all night for the vote coverage.

He obviously has influential friends in high places to be able to have this scandal go by virtually unreported by mainstream media.

CNN personality Richard Quest was busted in Central Park early yesterday with some drugs in his pocket, a rope around his neck that was tied to his genitals, and a sex toy in his boot, law-enforcement sources said.

Quest, 46, was arrested at around 3:40 a.m. after a cop spotted him and another man inside the park near 64th Street, a police source said.

The criminal complaint against Quest said the park was closed at the time – something Quest should have known because of all the signs saying “Park Closed 1 a.m. to 6 a.m.” Quest was initially busted for loitering, the source said.

Aside from the oddly configured rope, the search also turned up a sex toy inside of his boot, and a small bag of methamphetamine in his left jacket pocket.

It wasn’t immediately clear what the rope was for.

I suspect he is actually a high level intelligence psyop agent of some sort.

Yeah, I wasn't going to post that, but that's the one.

To your point about him being a possible high level psyop agent, well...since 9/11 we sure have had a lot of issues surrounding his core knowledge base, finance, aviation and politics. That's convenient.

Our TV shows have a lots of Brits these days, and I really like them all, except for Quest. Something about him really gets on my nerves.

You've got to be kidding me...Richard Quest is still around?
I still remember about a decade ago when I still thought the Daily Show was funny and Jon Stewart would rip on Jon Oliver by playing clips of Richard Quest by saying "Quest Me!"...

The above poster with the strange bust in Central Park makes total sense if you've ever seen the guy at his best.
