Quest Quips

blog devoted to CNN International Business anchor, Richard Quest, who looks like a cross between Roger Daltry and a Muppet. You have to see him to believe him...

Meet Our New London Correspondent!

One of the great things about this site is all the lovely people who write in and volunteer their time to watch Richard on CNN and report on his antics. I can't thank all of you enough for your contributions.

Barbara from London sent in this dispatch:

"Not much to report today [6/4/03] as Richard's segment of BizNews was rather overshadowed by Christiane Amampour's report on the arrival of president George W. Bush in Jordan for middle east summit with Abu Mazen and Ariel Sharon. Typical of CNN when there is something in the lines of "breaking news" it takes all the air coverage.

Anyhow, Ruchard seemed to be rather sullen and aware that this could actually be an historical moment. There was a funny moment when Richard said that President Bush should have arrived and then they showed a rather empty airport. Richard then emitted one of his typical growling sounds and said: "Well, I guess not". It does not really sound that funny described like this but I am sure you can imagine it knowing the subject.

That all for today! Raining cats and dogs here and the week-end is still far...."
