Leave Candidates' Kids Alone Michael Reagan Friday, March 9, 2007 What kind of people are we? Is nothing sacred anymore? Are there no limits on how far the media can go in digging into the personal lives of candidates? It's beginning to look like the answer is a resounding "No!" A brand new form of child abuse is the media's pursuit of the children of political candidates in an effort to trap them into taking pot shots at their parents. Case in point: the media's attempt to exploit a split between Rudy Giuliani's son and daughter by his previous marriage. Anybody familiar with the former New York mayor's marital problems knows that his divorce from Donna Hanover was, to say the very least, bitter. What was not known publicly was that it appears to have resulted in the estrangement from their father of the two children of the marriage. That's a personal matter, one would think. Thanks to The New York Times, however, it's now very public. Having no national security secrets to expose to al Qaeda and other enemies of the United States at the moment, the Times found time to go digging in their mud pit and drag Giuliani's two children into the mire. Under photo caption "Noticeably Absent From the Giuliani Campaign: His Children," the Times reported that Giuliani's son Andrew Giuliani says he and his father are estranged and allowed as to how he would not be campaigning for his dad. It doesn't seem to have occurred to the Times that Andrew, who has his own life to live, might just have things to do other than campaigning for his dad. newsmax.com
