Normally when sexual pictures show up online of a college kid, he doesn’t get to start out working one of his first jobs as a national television host.

But if your dad is NBC’s Tim Russert, all the raunchy pictures of you in the world won’t stop your rapid ascent to the top of the media biz.

Yes, thanks in large part to Father Tim’s behind-the-scene finagling, you’ll see his son Luke Russert (at right in a photo from his Facebook page) co-hosting Joe Scarborough’s morning program tomorrow on MSNBC.

Little Luke is just a senior at Boston College.

Thanks, dad! Wanna go hot tubbing?
