Does Jonathan Alter (Newsweek) have cancer?

[Lancer]

I meant to ask y'all last week when I saw him on MSNBC for the first time in months. He was on just now, head shaved and raspy-voiced. Anyone know his story?

[calico1]

1. Yes, he does.

I forgot which kind but I do remember reading a while back that he was being treated.

2. Yes, I heard him say he did months ago on Imus. I can't remember

what kind of cancer.

3. Yep

Lymphoma. Imus talked to him about it briefly this morning. Apperently he is feeling better, but I didn't hear much in the way of details, I was was only catching part of it.

4. Thanks so much.

Jonathan Alter had managed to slip under my radar, and who better to ask than my fellow DUers? I wish him well.
