Quote
"Bob Novak is the one that hit me? Well, everybody knows who Bob Novak is! He's a famous journalist! . . . I was struck by Bob Novak? . . . Well, I think that makes it a great story! The doctors reset my shoulder. I'm doing fine. . . . I'm a pretty tough guy, you know. And when I saw I was being hit, I rolled with the punch. I used my training in judo to roll with the punch" — Liljenquist, to WMAL 630AM Radio1
