Well, maybe not. His wife is still working.

Hmm, you don't think they could cut back a little and live comfortably on his wife's salary? And why should she have to leave a job in Philadelphia because her husband's a creep? I don't get these people...you have a good job that pays insanely well...how hard is it not to screw up so royally?

I remember reading a break down of his expenses in Philly Mag. If I recall correctly, he puts more money in his kids' college funds each month than I make in a month. I think he and his family will be just fine.

I know that flamer John Ogden from channel 10 started out making $200 a day, so how come the little tramp stuck his landlord with an unpaid water bill?. sheesh!

That seems low. $200 a day is $1000 a week or $52K a year. Considering that traffic reporters tend to work both the morning and evening newcasts (usually a split shift) I'd think they'd be better paid than that.

More than $52K for doing traffic reports? Yikes!
Larry was making $700K a year and I'm sure Dawn's pulling in a pretty penny too. I don't think the Mendte family will be hurting.

He was living with some ditzy roomates, too.

You can tell he hasn't "grown up yet" when you watch him on the news. He's still a teenager, mentally.

Yeah, I've heard stories about him tossing attitude at Bump too.
And that article when he was handcuffed down at the 12th & walnut parking garage, lousy drunk....LOL What a mess.

Yep.

Kerri-Lee just gave a brief statement on FOX News at 10 just now offering up support for co-anchor Dawn Stensland during "this difficult time".....cello wails. Doves cry.

How weird is this to even be reporting on a fellow anchors' husband's, er, stupidity?!

Now Minty's officially charged..........there goes the caddy, bizarre dynasty of tabloid-chased anchor-age.............aye
