New York politician tangles with reporter at Sagamore Hotel upstate
You never know what you're going to find when you're on the road. I've spent seemingly countless nights in hotels and have run into some strange situations. One thing I haven't seen, though, is a fight break out between politicians and the media. Well, this is exactly what happened at the Sagamore Hotel, on Lake George in upstate New York.
Last summer, I had the opportunity to head up to Lake George, New York and check out the newly renovated Sagamore Hotel, so I took a closer look at the local news this morning when I heard it mentioned. It turns out the upscale property was the site of a spat between controversial Republican New York gubernatorial candidate Carl Paladino and NY Post reporter Fred Dicker.

According to Fox 5 New York, Dicker asked Paladino about "evidence he had that his rival, Andrew Cuomo, had cheated on his then-wife, Kerry Kennedy, years ago." Meanwhile, Paladino "accused Dicker of sending a photographer to take pictures of his 10-year-old daughter, whom he fathered during an affair ."
