Rob Nelson worked at The Times-Picayune for seven years before moving to WWL-TV and then ABC World News Now. This morning, during World News Now's "Morning Papers" segment, he talked about the upcoming cutbacks at the T-P, calling them "a hurtful and damaging decision for the city" and slamming the Newhouse "corporate beancounters" as he got more and more wound up about the fate of the paper.
"You need a drink, Rob," says his co-anchor.
