NEW YORK (AP) - The tribe has spoken, naming cattle rancher James «J.T.» Thomas Jr. the sole «Survivor.
The 24-year-old country boy prevailed over New Yorker Stephen Fishbach on Sunday's season finale. He will bring home the $1 million check and bragging rights to Samson, Alabama, where he operates a cattle-ranching business.
The winner was chosen by a seven-member jury of «Survivor» peers.
The 18th edition of the CBS castaway competition was set in the rugged interior of Brazil, where 16 players congregated when the season began.
