For all the reporters now officially covering the campaign trail, ABC News’ Jake Tapper has some advice for you. The veteran journalist put out a list of his 13 pieces of advice for young reporters including a bit about finding love. He writes as No. 5: “Keep your eyes peeled. I met my future wife at the Chequers Pub at the Hotel Fort Des Moines.” Tapper married Planned Parenthood’s Jennifer Brown back in September 2006. Before that, Tapper famously went on a date with White House intern Monica Lewinsky just weeks before the news broke that she had an affair with President Clinton. He wrote a piece about it for Washington City Paper. And so reporters stay date-able, Tapper also recommends laying off all that free food. His No. 9 rule, “Food that is plentiful and seemingly free does not = non-fattening.”
