Hunting Thomas Roberts
There are reports of Thomas “Anchors Away” Roberts carousing at Cobalt, Halo and Duplex Diner. But somehow, Hearsay has missed seeing the out former CNN Headline News anchor there, or anywhere around town, for that matter. Roberts is now part of the Pat “They’re Always After Me Lucky Charms” O’Brien-helmed tawdry show The Insider. And now he’s wrapped up in some tawdry gossip of his own. DListed purports to have naked full-frontal and full-bottom shots of Roberts. And the shots were apparently taken from his Manhunt profile. Somehow, Hearsay has missed seeing those before, too. These shots don’t show Roberts’ face. So, of course, there’s no proof it’s actually Roberts. In a statement the the New York Daily News, a spokesman at The Insider didn’t confirm or deny the legitimacy of the pix . He simply expressed dismay that Roberts has now become a “victim of this malicious personal attack.” Victim? Malicious? Clearly he’s not using Manhunt for good. But short of asking Roberts directly — and that’s just not Hearsay’s behind-the-back style, especially with a backside that nice — the only way to find out is to ask you, the D.C. bar- and Manhunt-hopping community. Does little Roberts really look like that? Or at least, have you seen him out and about? And by “him,” Hearsay means either big or little Roberts. Send Hearsay a note by clicking down below….
