Rookie CNN Reporter Bashes Tea Party

Rookie CNN Reporter Bashes Tea Party

Susan Roesgen is overwhelmed by the very idea of a popular protest against her belief system. She apparently does not believe that independent people can possibly be against Obama and his spending plans, so as she covers the event, she loses her cool. She is offended at a participant who characterizes Obama as a fascist. She fails to grasp that people can refuse to be bought off, and shows apparently genuine astonishment at that sentiment. Her naivete is showing big time, especially as she characterizes the demonstration as "anti-CNN" and claims it is illegitimate since, as she puts it, Fox News organized the protest.

As of the time of this posting, Susan Roesgen still works there and there still has not been any apology or statement from CNN about this incident. Zero Base Thinkers are not holding our breath.
