Lou Dobbs opened his syndicated radio show on Thursday laughing off the Nation’s report, published earlier in the day, claiming that Dobbs employed illegal immigrants at his homes in New Jersey and Florida, even as he spoke out against others who did.
“Welcome everybody, I’m delighted to have you with us,” Dobbs said at the top of the show, laughing. “We’re going to have an unusual show.”
First, Dobbs announced the birth of a new granddaughter. "My daughter Heather gave birth to a beautiful daughter, Sarah, at 9 a.m. this morning."
“I was going to take the day off,” Dobbs said, but the calls about the Nation’s article “kept coming and coming.”
