People widely loved — and hated — legendary U.S. Senator Jesse Helms, not only here in North Carolina, but around the world. Much of that hate centered on his stances on the issues of race and the gay community. However, Senator Helms never knew that he had a gay granddaughter. Fifteen years after his death, his granddaughter, Jennifer Knox, has chosen to speak about it publicly for the first time. It was first reported in The Assembly by John Drescher. Both Drescher and Knox join host Tim Boyum to talk more about this incredible story.
