Novak: "He's not dead, that's the main thing."
According to Politico's Jonathan Martin and Chris Frates, syndicated columnist Robert Novak hit a pedestrian with his car this morning in Washington, D.C.
"I didn't know I hit him," Mr. Novak told reporters. "I feel terrible." As terrible as Mr. Novak feels, Media Mob is sure that the man he hit with his black Corvette feels worse. In a video on the site, Mr. Novak comes off as cagey and nervous as he exits a police car and is grilled by reporters. "He's not dead, that's the main thing," Mr. Novak said.
Sounds like cagey is a good plan for a guy who's trying to duck the run part of a hit-and-run.
"I didn't notice him." Yeah, really? Witnesses say the pedestrian was sprawled across his windshield. And when an outraged biker/witness peddled after him, Novak kept trying to get away.
