84. The only thing I was disappointed in was the media hype before the show was aired.

We've been told he had a 5 month affair with a porn star. When in fact it was one semi-consensual sexual encounter. The rest of the time they were barely in contact except the one time she spent 5 hours with him, I guess trying to convince him to put her on The Apprentice.

Make no mistake, a one time sexual encounter while your wife is home caring for their newly born son is disgusting. Just saying the media built it up to make it sound like they were having sex for 5 months.

So I can just hear the RWer's saying, oh big deal. One time. Media fake news.
