When journalists who aren’t nationally known go on Social Media and tell their fans to “ask me anything,” it always makes me a little queasy.

Nothing says narcissism like an “Ask me anything” sort of day.

Unless you’re Sanjay GuptaDr. Drew, Danny Bonaduce or even Shepard Smith, you have no business instructing your panting followers to question you.

What kind of person does such a thing?

Well, WaPo race reporter Wesley Lowery for one. He’s the BMOC these days because he’s been charged with trespassing in St. Louis County, Mo.

On Monday he instructed his social media pals to question him.

One woman asked Wesley, “Will we ever make out?”

Wesley replied, “No comment.”

Another asked, “Regret it? Or just what comes with the job?”

He replied, “Comes with the job.”

His favorite novel? “To Kill A Mockingbird.”

Not that I’m you’re publicist, but Wesley, you should really do these weekly.
