Whoops - an end of career for NPR Science Editor David Malakoff

It seems that he liked children. I mean really really liked children... From The Smoking Gun:
Ex-NPR Editor In Child Porn Bust
Second time this month a D.C. media figure is nabbed on federal rap

For the second time this month, a Washington, D.C. media figure has been charged with possession of child pornography. David Malakoff, who until recently worked as National Public Radio's science editor and an on-air correspondent, was named in a felony criminal information filed Tuesday. The information, a copy of which you'll find below, offers few details about the 46-year-old Malakoff's alleged criminal activity, except to note that he possessed the illicit material between April and June 2008 (Malakoff resigned from his job last June, according to NPR spokesperson Anna Christopher). The Department of Justice's filing of an information--as opposed to a criminal complaint or indictment--often indicates that a defendant has agreed to plead guilty to charges.
