Not Yet Fired Fox Reporter Who Outed Teacher's Porn Past Defends Actions

Mike Beaudet may in fact be Malden, Massachusetts’ least-​favorite reporter ever, but while he still has his job at local Fox affiliate Fox 25 WFXT-​TV, he and his as-​yet unnamed producer are milking their story about a beloved high school teacher’s past work in gay porn for all it’s worth. Last night, Beaudet, went on-​air to discuss why he did the “undercover” story, outing Kevin Hogan, but all he could come up with is a replay of the previous night’s story, sans the porn B-​roll.

Apparently, as you’ll see in this video, Beaudet would be just fine if Hogan — whom we still don’t know if it even is Hogan who made the films — had made the films 20 years ago, rather than just last year. Apparently, when you make porn has something to do with whether or not you’re a “good enough” person to teach high school kids.

Interestingly, too, the story starts and ends with the “fact” that Fox got a tip and that’s how they started to pursue the story…
