Listen "Born Lucky"
Episode Synopsis
"Dad will tell you he believed fixing me was only possible because of my 'intelligence,' but I would counter and say it couldn’t have happened without his love."So writes Leland Vittert, anchor at NewsNation and former foreign correspondent for Fox News. Diagnosed with what we now understand as autism, Vittert was labeled as "retarded" and was bullied throughout his school years. His father quit his job and became a full-time parent/coach/friend. It was, as his dad described it, Leland's "only hope."Bethany and Kara sit down with Vittert and talk about his life and his new book, Born Lucky: A Dedicated Father, A Grateful Son, and My Journey with Autism.
