As a resource to the media, he has appeared numerous times on networks such as CNN, HLN, CNN-I, FOX and NBC, being a part of events that changed the world, and providing his quick-hitting insights and advice on everything from the Chilean Miner Extraction to cultural issues, the state of the American family and bullying.
