Richard Engel & Hair: Setting Sail to the White House?

Rumor has it that newly-stateside Richard Engel –- NBC News Chief Foreign Correspondent and the longest serving broadcaster that served in Iraq –- will continue reporting in style from NBC's New York headquarters before heading to the White House for their profuse network platforms including "NBC Nightly News," "Today," "Meet the Press with David Gregory," MSNBC and msnbc.com. It is expected that Engel will remain chief foreign correspondent while filing his reports primarily in the States -– a position not unlike CBS News' designation of Lara Logan. We sure are excited that Engel -- who can read and speak disparate dialects of Arabic, Spanish and Italian -- while no doubt a man of gravitas, also fully comprehends the gravity of slick hair, a sick suit and the significance of his sartorial selections. Oh, and he received the 2008 Alfred I. DuPont-Columbia University award, the Medill Medal for Courage in Journalism (the first in history presented to a broadcast journalist for his personal video journal documentary "War Zone Diary"), an Emmy in 2006 for his fearless coverage in Lebanon, and the Edward R. Murrow award for his hard news feature "Baghdad E.R." But we still swoon at his Conan-rivaling coif and signature panache.
