New York TV Anchor Busted Trying To Hook Up With 15 Year Old Boy For Sex, Blames Cancel Culture

A New York group that exposes child-sex predators online busted what appears to be a local TV anchor who was allegedly at the scene to meet with what he thought was a 15-year-old boy.

The group, which goes by 607 Predator Hunters, posted a video to YouTube that appears to show Zach Wheeler, an anchor at NBC affiliate WETM-TV, at a store in an attempt to meet with the underaged boy.

When confronted by the filming crew, Wheeler initially attempts to deny that he was at the location to meet or have sex with the teenager, instead insisting multiple times he was only there to "talk" to the kid and warn him to get "off of these apps."

But when the group doesn't appear to buy Wheeler's excuse, he pivots to a more combative tone.

"Why do you guys do this to gay and lesbian people," he asks, with the group insisting they attempt to catch all pedophiles.

"Are you guys here to ruin people's lives," Wheeler asks at another point, noting that the group was going to "ruin my whole entire life" and he is "going to lose my job and everything." At another point, Wheeler argues that the group is engaging in "cancel culture" because of his job.
