...Bartlett, was to offer the press secretary job to Tony Snow of Fox News radio and television, a former newspaper editorial writer and onetime host of Fox News Sunday who served George H.W.

No, to establish a bona fide hero, it flings young Oleg in harm’s way with abandon to allow Joey to prove what a good guy he is by repeatedly protecting him.
