Autism hasn't slowed this journalist down. Why he's finally sharing his story. | Opinion

Looking from the outside in, Leland Vittert seems to have it all together. 

He’s a successful broadcast journalist who hosts his own nightly show on NewsNation, “On Balance,” following a decade at Fox News. He’s reported overseas. It’s an enviable career. 

Vittert, 43, also has autism. He hasn’t talked about it publicly until now. 

He had to overcome significant challenges growing up to get where he is today, and he credits his father, who quit his job to help his son, with ensuring Vittert was never defined by a diagnosis. 

Vittert details his journey in his first book, “Born Lucky: A Dedicated Father, A Grateful Son, and My Journey with Autism,” which releases Sept. 30.

The dynamic landscape of current events often brings forth significant discussions. Monitoring these developments provides crucial insights.
