Fox Business’ “Making Money” anchor Charles Payne talks to the Hartford Courant about what others should learn from his career story.
I guess one of the more important things is to have unrealistic dreams, and to keep your head down and keep pushing. You’ve got to take the body blows and can’t get discouraged. I see a lot of young people that when it doesn’t go their way they are calling out sick and sulking. Things don’t always happen in the time frame we think they should.
MSNBC “Way Too Early” host Thomas Roberts 
speaks to The Advocate about covering LGBT
issues as an openly gay anchor.
I see my role as a reporter and conversation starter. But on a personal level, I know all too well how it feels to lose a job … and how it feels to worry about having a successful career while being openly gay. In my younger years, when I was just starting out, I was constantly worried that any honesty about me being gay would derail my career goals. It was not being gay — it was about being honest and authentic about it in the workplace that worried me. No one should have those worries. I have worked very hard to get where I am and I am proud to utilize that platform and help elevate the conversation.
